A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I would have agreed with you about Edge when it was MS’s own engine. It was lightweight and fast. Even early builds on the Chromium stack were decent. Lately, Edge is more bloated than Chrome! It’s really showing MS’s true colors these days.
Microsoft has always impressed me with their ability to ruin genuinely good products.
I couldn't help but think of this (nearly 20 year old) video in response to that comment. 😁

you could forgive the obnoxiously stupid packaging and marketing if the device inside that box was still as good as an iPod, but we all know a microsoft i-pod in 2005 would have been a clunky piece of crap. they didn’t figure out the zune until after the iPhone launched and it still wasn’t as polished as iPods from years earlier
I used Edge a bit at work because it feels like Office365 stuff runs better on it, but that might be placebo.
Firefox runs it all just as good!
