I’ve got opera, brave, firefox, firefox developer’s edition, chromium and falkon browsers on my linux machine. I don’t need or want a browser that has anything to do with windows or microsoft. Their browsers are usually behind the times anyway. Web developers hate MS browsers because you have to have a second set of code or workarounds just for them and even then, things just might not work or look right.

Escaped the MS plantation early this year and I have no desire to go back. Want nothing to do with the evil empire.

I fought that ugly battle for decades on my websites, starting with IE3 vs. Navigator, Mosaic, SpyGlass, Firefox, etc.

One might hope that Edge/Chromium will prove largely compatible with Chrome and Brave and other Chromium-based browsers.
