I just see ansolutely no reason why I would use microsoft edge

Edge in its current form is being replaced by a version based on Chromium. I can see why people would want to use that when it becomes default since it would have the advantages of using Chrome but without the extra download.

So, like... does EVERYONE think it looks too much like the Firefox logo, or...

It’s looks more like a tsunami than a curled up Fox to me. It’s a little reminiscent of Akamai[1] tbh. [1] https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Akamai_logo.svg

Yeah, but... the Firefox Browser logo also looks more like a tsunami than a curled up fox...

And that's just the browser logo. Let's not get into the Firefox ecosystem logo: http://ffp4g1ylyit3jdyti1hqcvtb-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/open...

I thought they were replacing edge with Blink soon?

They're replacing EdgeHTML (the internal engine within Edge) with Blink (the internal engine within Chromium). The name of the overall Edge product isn't changing (to my knowledge).

Are there any estimates when they make the switch on Windows 10?
