Microsoft Edge...

The Question

The Question

Eternal
...has actually gotten a little bit impressive, as of its most recent update. Vertical tabs? Nice. One of my favorite features from Vivaldi, and Edge actually does a fairly interesting thing with them by allowing you to set them to a "compact" mode where only the icons for the individual tabs are shown, unless you hover your cursor over them, which triggers them to dynamically expand out from the edge of the screen. Pretty slick.

Edge has also gotten a wee bit quicker when it comes to page rendering, which is always a goodness.
 
I saw an article on the upgrade. I've disabled it in my settings because it's a cunt of a browser. Sucks up everything for resources and slows my stuff down terribly.

That said, the tabs ARE a nice improvement. The introduced the tabs back when they first rolled out 10 to great silence for the most part, so they dropped the feature. The success of vivaldi (success=# of downloads) is making them re think that I guess.

I should learn LINUX already.
 
Doesn't seem so awful to me. This is the Chromium-based version I'm talking about, not the... whatever-the-previous-version-was-based-on version.
 
The new Edge honestly isn't bad at all, but I tend to stay away from Chromium based browsers. Still on Firefox even though it's getting pretty terrible lately.
 
Meh. I use Safari or Firefox pretty much exclusively, tho I sadly have to use Edge for work stuff. Ick.

Yeah I like the tabs, too.
