Opinions On Microsoft Edge?
Even though I'm new to Windows 10 since December 2016, I hardly even touch the new Microsoft Edge web browser, which is obviously a Windows 10 Exclusive web browser. I'm always using Mozilla Firefox as you can see from the taskbar... So what are your opinions on Microsoft Edge? It's all gray everywhere, and the start page shows you news headlines, the weather, sports updates, etc... And I believe that if you have a very fast internet connection, Microsoft Edge could load web pages in a snap from what I've seen...

Microsoft Edge doesn't even have all of YouTube's HTML5 features, same result with Internet Explorer 11, when Google Chrome does, and Mozilla Firefox is only one that has "WebM VP8" but does not have "MSE & WebM VP9"...

At first, I'm having a hard time with Microsoft Edge but it is clean and simple

Re: Opinions On Microsoft Edge?
If it's on my PC then I never look at it. If it's on someone else then I prefer it over chrome. Truth be told I prefer IE over edge solely because it is more familiar to me.
This is my signature.

Edge is just awful, I personally use Firefox Quantum.

1. The start page is awful whit all that random crap , i hate that , i prefer Opera/Vivaldi startpage
2. No built in VPN(like Opera) , no built in adblock (like Opera) , it's quite buggy and slow for me , also needs lots of RAM (like Chrome)
I use Opera and Vivaldi but also have Mozilla Quantum installed but never use that, even internet explorer is faster than Edge ....

Chromium Edge has come a long way since the last post here. I use It as my primary browser now. I hate the round edges in Chrome, and I know you can revert back to the old design, but I just prefer Edge now.
On release, there will be a few features held back, but Edge is the only browser capable of Native 4K and Dolby Atmos/Dolby Audio Experience if you have the equipment for both. I also love the ability to select what to delete on closing the browser, rather than selecting it on chrome and it removes everything. There's so many little things and QOL stuff added to Edge. The old edge was terrible and I only used it because it also supported 4K which at the time was only available on Netflix. Now Amazon and other streaming sites have 4K and Dolby, but Edge Chromium can handle it all.
It's much faster than Chrome and to me, looks better. You can customize the home screen, but I turn that off and just use Google as my home page and default search, some irony there buy hey!
Either way, I highly recommend it.

I think that Microsoft has to get rid of the E completely. If they get rid of that letter more people will try the browser. the letter E reminds Inernet Explorer
