Microsoft Edge

Do any of you use it? Is it better than Chrome? I am an old dog and do not like change.
Just curious. If you did change, did you have issues to deal with?

[Frank Drackman]

I use it without any issues. I'm a retired Microsoft guy so I am biased.

I normally use Firefox and Chrome. Both work better than IE or Edge.

I prefer Firefox on desktop/laptop and Chrome on phone.

In my experience, both Firefox and Chrome are faster, render more accurately, crash less, support more standards and overall are more polished compared to Edge.

I don't know why MS still makes IE and Edge. Probably, fear of losing Bing Business.

I use both IE and Edge. I have no problems with either one.

Is there any reason to go to Edge?

[Ken Fitzgerald]

IIRC, IE isn't supported or isn't going to be supported much longer. My current computer delivered with IE and then it upgraded to Edge. I have both and have used both interchangeably with no issues.

I don't know why MS still makes IE and Edge. Probably, fear of losing Bing Business.I tried it when I got my Surface Book back in '16. It earned a solid "meh"...all things considered I liked IE11 better.

Its worst feature was a tendency to "forget" that Google was my default search engine and switching back to Bing.

The "original" Edge was a different animal than the later version recently developed on the Chromium code core. I have not used it, however. I use Chrome and MacOS primarily, but when I use Windows, I still use Chrome since my settings and logins remain effective across platforms and I'm not interested in changing systems.

Edge and my investment companies web sight do not play well together:o

That's one reason why I use Chrome on phone and home laptop.

On work laptop I use Firefox, to avoid just in case capturing of internal (work) website history in chrome.

Yes, the same setup across multiple devices and operating systems. Other major browsers also offer this, but I'd need a really, really good reason to switch to a whole different system...

No. No noticeable benefit to switching.
