it's an impressive browser for sure, feels really feature rich and fast on desktop when combined with uBO. its shit on mobile until they add ubo support
>its shit on mobile until they add ubo support
The beta version already has it if you're ok with using that
Seriously not shilling. I was sure Edge was gonna be trash, but I swear it's way better than Chrome. Google got complacent and it's bloated and slow as shit now.
This is the typical janny but instead it gets paid instead of working for free.
The new tab page is filled with ads and corporate propaganda, constant annoying popups about "the user experience" etc. It's not worth the trouble.
you realize you can disable that, right?
Why would you disable features the developers programmed for you?
my "completely empty" new page still has microsoft's logo emblazoned on it, with no way to turn it off.
That's where tabliss comes in handy, it's pretty good for getting rid of the bloated default home pages in edge and Firefox.
you can't you need plugin for it.
normies really use edge? crazy.
>you can't you need plugin for it.
You don't need a plugin.
it only holds 3 months of browsing history with no way to increase it further
Chromium limit.
And?
Just because Edge is polished shit, doesn't make it any less shit
muh copilot
If you're on windows then there's no reason to use another chromium derivative. Firefox would be the only real alternative. I use Firefox as my main browser and edge as the backup if Firefox doesn't work with some odd page.
It feels so much slower than Chrome for some reason.
Toggle off the moronic default settings and then check again. It's faster than chrome in a lot of cases for me
Edge has vertical tabs and split screen. Both of which I use a lot when i work. Edge uses less memory compared to firefox and chrome
The absolute worst browser. You're starting from Chrome, which is bad enough. But instead of improving the privacy and features like Brave or Vivaldi, you let fricking Microsoft add a whole 'nother layer of ads and tracking
Serious question: do you also use Outlook or Windows?
Brave has a JIT toggle now and a built-in adblocker written in Rust. hate to say it but Brave won
you can whitelist/blacklist sites for JIT with any chromium forks from 93+ via chrome://policy

>chrome, but worse
I've noticed chrome get laggier and laggier over the past year. I figured it was just the web getting more moronic, but I started using Edge and holy frick it is so much faster. Scrolling in chrome is all fricked up and choppy.
its been good, and i will probably use it until the end of time, but they've really started to shit it up with features no one asked for. The sidebar, copilot, workspaces etc which granted can all be turned off but i'd rather they asked if you want to turn them on than shit up your browser by default every time they have a bright idea.
Can you use a custom user.js to harden it?
What? No
you're hardening my wiener afaik
Anybody who can't get an actual transparent PNG of an image are idiots who's opinions don't matter
something something shitposting something something still shitposting
literally a chrome reskin with a microsoft data mining and advertising engine grafted on.
It's pretty gud if you disable all the bloat and services, it's pretty much chrome with less botnet, the android client sucks though.
>it's pretty much chrome with less botnet
it's literally chrome with even more botnet
And nice built-in stuff like read aloud
It's a less secure skinned version of Chrome
It's picture search feels better, much better than the pile of ass Google images can be. Also frick Pinterest.
It's spyware. But if you're using Windows 10/11 you might as well use all Microsoft's shit. It is a nice browser I do give it that, very fast.
I don't care what browser you use, OP, it's a personal choice anyway
Just like your gender.
gender =/= sex
No that's not a choice, sorry
It looks like the web browser my grandma used after she installed 3 toolbars
In fact it seems like she'd be the target audience for this
edge is only good for playing netflix (and most other streaming services) above 720p
i have been using edge for almost a decade
I like their pdf rendering
I like MSEdge, but it has feature bloat. It seems every update brings a new feature and its really annoying.
One really annoying feature was the MS Search Bar that was added in the middle of the desktop. Like, what the hell...
Now, MS is pushing its Copilot BS. So, now I get recommendations to use Copilot.
Just f*ck off already. Just act like a browser and leave me alone.
Otherwise, it's a pretty nice browser. I like to have two browsers: Firefox and Edge. Firefox for most web browsing and Edge for 'edge' cases. Like how I use Ungoogled Chromium for Youtube.
