I share my annoyance with the all the sharp edges (no pun intended) and lack of features that folks are finding in Edge. The lack of ad blocking alone is rather annoying. But here's one that is really irritating, especially when perusing this or other forums.
Let's say you are reading a message thread, and you get about 6 pages in. Like I just did with this one. :) Now let's say you want to go back 3 or 4 pages, or to the index page of the forum, or somewhere you were before that. So you click and hold the back button and wait for a reverse chronologically ordered list of sites visited in order to zoom back. And nothing happens - you have to click the back button once for every page back you want to go, wait for it to render, and click again, over and over. Really obnoxious and inconvenient.
Edge seems more like a proof of concept or simple test bed for the new MS rendering engine. It should have been clearly portrayed as 'under development/not ready for prime time'. But MS trumpeted it as their awesome new browser. And so people are disappointed and a bit miffed. Bare bones is great, to a point.
