Edge Browser now having Chrome Base - jonashot - Dec 10, 2018
I always have been a fan of Microsoft but theirs browser have always been a completely garbage, real recently with the expansion of Google on the market with the Android, I have now a new love, but I still feel like Microsoft is my first love for the tec life. Whenever I can use a thing from Microsoft I give it a shot, I try Edge is the fastest in opening(recently) and have a nice feeling, but the Sync is something that for me, a fiercely android user, is necessary and Chrome is on every phone out there, is very much easier and besides that Edge for PC/Android is one designless browser, expansions lack and other stuff.
But returning to the Subject can maybe Microsoft revert the 72% of Chrome users and the only 4% of Edge users with this new Base and finally declaring defeat?
I know that many here have some feelings or they most identify themselves with some tec companies what is your opinion on the matter ?
Will you try it out and maybe revert ? Or are you fine with your browser? Which one you use today?

With Internet Explorer disaster over the years, it's normal that people do not use Edge as well, even If it works well (which I doubt xD).
I'm a Firefox & open source community lover.

🤫 someone doesn't know how to clear their cache.
All shit aside, Chrome eats the most ram - but has the fastest youtube playback experience.
Firefox doesn't eat ram but can feel clunky at times.
Edge/IE are just janky and feel shit to use.
Opera is the playback of Chrome mixed with the non RAM eating experience of firefox.
Brave is still newish and needs more testing.
>>Of course I will give it a test. When you spend 'that' much time online why wouldn't you want to optimize your experience?

Opera is the go to for me. Nice design and features. It’s fast as well so nothing to complain for.

Firefox was first the third party browser that I used, for like 2 or 3 years but when Galaxy S3 come out I changed and started using Chrome been with Chrome ever since. And open source is something I really don't understand or don't use it so 😁

Nothing beats Chrome in my opinion

If edge allows using Chrome extension I will switch to it for sure. Something just like Opera's chrome extension which allows Opera users to install any extension from Chrome web store

Micosoft Empire will never let you install chrome apps.

They admitted that Chrome is the best, despite after so many attempts to discredit and make you change from Chrome, who knows what are we expecting in the Chromium Version of Edge or maybe a new named "Edge".
I just hope to be great, good and better...

Edge is very good. People are not using it because they think it's same as internet exporer

IE/Edge have proven themselves as just terrible to me, and nothing else.

Really was wondering about that...
I need to test Brave, is the one sponsoring this forum right?

I believe brave is the one Omni is currently using, I am unsure if they are sponsored or anything though.

I've got to be honest and say I'll give edge a try once it goes to Chromium source. It might not use so much dang ram. I'll try it and see. No guarantees I'll switch over, but it might have some merit.
