- apparently there are big improvements to Edge on the way..
Upcoming accessibility improvements for Microsoft Edge revealed
sounds like some people won't be happy until Google/Chrome issues it's own OS to replace Win10 entirely..
honestly - why would anyone buy a Rolls Royce and then bung a Morris Minor engine in it..
- er.. no offence to Morris Minor owners intended, BTW..
..lovely motor

Good that they do that, since Edge is the best browser atm. I've used IE since it was released and this was the first time I've switched to another browser.
I am sure Microsoft doesnt want me using my Android, my Linux boxes, or my MacBook Pro either. But Chrome runs on all of them, and with everything synced to my google account, I get the same experience no matter which platform I am on. That is why I use Chrome.
Well it could be because I use IE as my primary(always have since it came out) and the caches are "primed" meaning it doesn't have much to load, only the changes(i.e. text), where as I use Edge only once in a while(just don't like the feel of it, but that's the same with many browsers I've tried and uninstalled, like Vivaldi, Opera, Maxthon, and, and ,and).
Edge seems to be very good, however I do not use my browser/s to watch ads or search with only one search engine. Until that is sorted no Edge for me. IE11 is what I use and will continue to do so. If MS stops IE11 use before Edge is sorted I will go back to Chrome and FF. Microsoft has a lot at stake here and should give heed to what their users want.
I've tried dozens of Browsers over the years, for me it's mainly about speed, naturally favourites, security and stuff come into play as well. I used Firefox for a long time, but it fell by the wayside a few years ago and I used mainly Explorer and Chrome. Edge felt a bit plain to me at first but I liked the speed so am willing to be a Guinea pig and keep testing it just like I'm an insider. If I felt it was at all slow I wouldn't be using it, I hate slow anything.
