![]() As I understand it, Chromium web standards are becoming more prevalent and the standard MS Edge browser of course doesn't follow those standards, so some parts of web browsing simply didn't work on Edge. Easy solution is just use Chromium as the engine for a new browser.. Makes sense to me. However, it would be nice if MS didn't try to make all their own "standards" like with that Silverlight crap, etc. I believe thats what created this rift in web standards to begin with. The browser wars will wage on for some time. ![]()

looks like MS has completely given up on their own browser, and once they switch over to the Chrome version full-time, i have a feeling Google will clean house.

![]() It's not like MS hasn't tried to own the browser market themselves.... They've been dictating their "own" net standards for years, and let's not forget them being caught purposely ruining Netscape back in the day. |

Any standard website should/would pull up looking nearly identically in FF/Opera/Chrome, etc. Try pulling it up in Edge, and things just looked different, or broken.. Given the slew of other browsers including mobile platforms that rendered correctly, something, something, Microsoft.

![]() This is a reason to switch to Firefox. It's the only other major browser engine remaining.

![]() Given my experience developing between the major browsers, most things I've have developed worked right out of the gate with Edge, not everything, but very close. Things that didn't work quite right were usually very minor to correct. More often than not, Safari has been the troublesome browser, where it works everywhere else. Safari is the new IE.

![]() I've been toying around with the dev channel version for 1 month+ on Windows 8.1. Nice, fast and stable so far. I use the "old" Edge at work on Win10, rendering is A-OK but I find it pretty much a mess, UI wise, this one is muck sleeker (luckily we have the option to install FF). Not switching from Firefox for personal use though...

![]() I've used Edge since the beginning with some compatibility issues every now and then. Sadly it's not compatible with most of the services we use in our company and had to still rely on Internet Explorer for those, that's about to change though. I'll push the new Edge as the company standard as soon as it exits it's dev stage, I've been using the Canary branch and works great so far.

![]() Did Google remove stuff from Chrome to prevent ads being blocked? At least I read that they would do that. https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/0...-adblock-apis/ |

![]() FYI it's out of beta now. I like it, but the reason why I left Google Chrome is because of all the Google spyware/tracking built into it. Not sure if I just traded one Big Brother for another, or not. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge |

Just a little update on this. I have recently worked on some very design heavy sites and ran into some Edge (not chromium) specific issues that I wanted to point out. CSS clip-path using polygon() Just straight up doesn't work like it does in every other browser. To compound on that, Edge falsely says that it supports a polygon() value, when it doesn't. As a fallback, you can supply an SVG element ID containing the values, but it still doesn't clip the target element like it's supposed to. CSS animations that are using translate, scale, and transition with some JS sprinkled in: Nope, not unless you want your web-page to look like it's having a seizure ![]() I also ran into a weird flexbox issue that is only broken in Edge, but can't remember what it was ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. In any case, I'm glad MS is throwing in the towel. It's a shame we can't make IE go away too

![]() Chredge actually works really well and I prefer it to Chrome, seems to pack less bloat and it's modified by MS, so it's not just a skin.

![]() I ended up switching back to Firefox. Edge Chromium is decent in most respects, but I found a few websites that were missing controls for embedded video and audio (like FF, RW, pause, full-screen, quality, etc). They work fine in Firefox. Oh well. |
