RIP edge. you were never good at anything but downloading Chrome

RIP edge. you were never good at anything but downloading Chrome.

Your UI, and all of its wasted space, were horrible.

They should have just kept the Spartan logo and name.

TOPPEST OF THE KEKS
NO FUCKING WAY LOL

> half of the traffic to Edge on Windows 10 was artificially inflated.
WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT?

It's like Microsoft thought they could make normies switch from a perfectly working, easy to use Chrome.

Shit, I won't lie, even I found navigating Edge a tad confusing.

edge is good browser actually sir you will want to offer it another try before you dismissed it pleas

>half of the traffic to Edge on Windows 10 was artificially inflated
Did we really need to be told this like it was something we didn't know?

Why would a name and a logo make any difference at all? Microsoft engineers are literally talentless brainlet pajeets.

This is actually due to sophisticated algorithms that make Edge handle the web so seamless and fast that the outdated methods of days gone to detect bots doesn't know how to handle how elegantly fast Edge is.

Because it was not as obvious of being just a reskinned IE and actually works well since they also have a program called Cortana.

Microsoft Edge isn't a reskinned IE. They literally put their hard work and hours and built it from ground up yet it can't compete even slightly with Chrome. The absolute state of MS engineers.

Oh shit SkyNets on the rise

Edge actually isn't that bad, I use it on my desktop. It's a fuck load better than IE, that's for sure

I'm just waiting for the gnu/linux version ;)

can it run java applets? activex?
because these are the only reasons to use IE, every other browser is better than edge if it can't do this

>They literally put their hard work and hours
Someone post that Win source code pic pls.

Edge and IE share some code for sure.

At face value it looks a lot like a reskin, which is why a lot of people don't use it and use chrome instead. I do like edge, but the extension support on chrome is far better and I'm not a fan of edge design.

> Microsoft Edge isn't a reskinned IE.
Its UA is still "Trident".

Edge has by far the scrolling and overall UI smoothness. On the other hand it and the entire UWP ecosystem font rendering is the most disgusting thing to have ever be created so fuck it and go die in a fire with the entire store.

I just wanted a world without internet explorer, was that too much to ask for

They should scrap edge as it is and make it like the Android version (basically a reskinned minimal as fuck chrome) then I'd use it as much as I use the mobile version; 24/7

>amazon fire stuck on bing search
>search for google
>Microsoft has an ad on the top of the page that says "why use Google when bing is better? Try it now."
>has a literal search bar in the ad
>click google anyway

Doesnt surprise me desu, Microsoft is always doing questionable shit

this one?

>microsoft engineers
You can really say the same about any american tech company

Yep. Thanks!

>not searching for google in the bing ad search to see how deep can it go

And the other browser dont have bots?

Ms continues to fight the browser wars. Perennial headline since 1998.

Look at this illiterate street shitter.
POO

ms should promote their superior porn browsing
>pssst, hey kid, wanna see some tiddies

That pic makes me depressed.
>the absolute state of big corporations

Edge is so bad, I had to install a 3rd browser just for p0rn.

made with love in india.

You have to go back

The logo is basically the IE logo, hence why consumers think Edge=IE.

>Microsoft Edge isn't a reskinned IE.
You're right. It is a re-skinned chrome. I love how sites to detect user agents reported it as chrome for months

Is Apple or Google any better? Please tell me they are. Also was Microsoft always like this or this are the sins of Pajeets?

In the LOO it goes.

They'll have their own separate problems. Microsoft is obviously suffering from the mess generated from having managers demand a business reason for every single line of code.

if it weren't for office being the defacto standard for business and colleges Microshit would have faded into irrelevancy by now.

Why would Google be better if they're wholeheartedly dedicated on taking on a as many Indian "software engineers" as possible?

It's the only browser I know that can actually do vp9 hardware decoding on Windows. Can Firefox Quantum do vp9 hardware decoding? Might consider switching if it can.

>Apple or Google any better?
Not particularly. Mac OS is a mess under the hood too. The kernel is a bodge job, I remember reading a post from an open-source project about how the networking API is broken and never gets fixed. And anyway they're a consumer-oriented company, so they have the same incentives as Microsoft - most of their users can't see ugliness underneath a shiny new UI, so they don't bother improving it. Google generates some pretty good code, but then again they also do an awful lot of web dev. And of course they've been more brazenly malicious with their data collection, and with pushing Chrome hard so they can tailor web standards to what they prefer. Which, if you remember, was a big problem people had with Microsoft back in the late 90s.

>was Microsoft always like this or this are the sins of Pajeets?
They've always been evil and focused on market dominance at all costs, but their code did used to be better way back when. It had to be back when saving a few kilobytes of memory mattered. Go read some of Raymond Chen's old blog posts about the wizardry that had to be pulled off to make e.g. Win 3.1 work.

>can it run trash and malware? no? it's shit then
This is how wintoddlers reason.

It uses the same web engine as IE but they removed non-standard stuff like activeX and plugins. It's basically IE but they're following standards now

t. never worked in his life and had to use corporate shitware

Yeh, that was a fun thread
>rbt.asia/g/search/text/53742277/

>search for Google
You are brain dead

the only OLE control available in edge is shockwave flash

>And of course they've been more brazenly malicious with their data collection, and with pushing Chrome hard so they can tailor web standards to what they prefer. Which, if you remember, was a big problem people had with Microsoft back in the late 90s.

google is mid-90s MS confirmed

No surprises there. Tried getting my company's application to run in Edge, just gave up.

Thankfully nowadays even enterprise shit shops can be convinced to use Chrome, retarded IT managers who only let the office workers use IE have finally lost the battle.

it lacked functionality in the beginning even if you would consider it only for light web surfing. what really pissed me off that you couldn't right click open private tab on the icon in the systray, you needed to open a window and then open a private tab.There was other shit like this which was inconvenient as well. Eventually they are killing all the nuisances but it's taking them long

>not open source
>lack of functionality on launch
>installed alongside IE for compatibility
>only works on windows 10
>falsely reports its useragent as chrome
>features like cortona integration that literally no one gives a shit about

gee, I wonder why no one uses this. Why is it that nearly everything MS does seems to lack focus and forethought?

They should have kept native Win32 applications instead of metro garbage

No. Win32 is garage and needs to die. They should have developed a proper replacement for Win32 rather than the shit we have with UWP.

I hope Microsoft open sources most of it as Edgium.

Only windows browser with responsive scrolling so I use it, fuck all the other shit for not having it

>Why is it that nearly everything MS does seems to lack focus and forethought?
Today's Microsoft resembles the IBM of the '90s.
Warring factions contending for resources, no overall vision, one or two major products that suck up all the attention internally.
Add, in Microsoft's case, the "grading on a curve" HR that means 1 out of every 10 employees gets sacked each review results in more time being spent drinking with the right people than working. Good work won't get you as far as good connections.
