#32I switched from Chrome for Edge's native integration with Windows credentialing and Office 365. In a corporate environment that relies heavily on Windows and the Office suite, it really works very well. Its elegant account management between personal and work instances is also fantastic.

Re: New Microsoft Edge
#33I’ve been using Edge on Windows for a few months now. It crashes so many times (all windows just disappear suddenly) and makes my system unresponsive. It’s clear that Edge isn’t able to handle a few windows with a few tabs each, with memory management being the core issue.
When starting out to try it, I knew Edge would be using a lot of RAM since it’s based on Chromium, but I didn’t expect it to crash so much.
So Firefox stays, and continues to be, the primary browser.
On iOS, Edge is just another “skin” over Safari/WebKit underneath. It seems ok — i didn’t notice anything phenomenally better than some other browsers.

#34I am using Firefox at this time(only complaints are, performance which is less than chromium based browsers, and bugs in fenix). I am not interested in Edge because it is just closed sourced fork of chromium. Better use firefox or ungoogled chromium or new upcoming Bold browser(brave browser fork without crypto or token) https://github.com/BoldBrowser
Speaking of Chromium-based browsers - Has anyone here tried Vivaldi? How is it?

#35> More privacy & control I suppose that excludes MS's aggressive use of telemetry in Edge itself
Good. Great software learns from its users. It also makes developers' lives infinitely easier and ergo makes the product 10x better for endusers.

Citation needed? Linux users pining for Microsoft products is a rarity. Why would they go for a closed-source browser when they can go with the open-source, non-google Chromium (same engine) or Firefox?

I'm glad I don't need to support Safari because there's no way in hell that that's ever going to come to Linux (or Windows again).
