[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 898772, member: 78686"] Few things that I would like to mention that I don't like about Microsoft Edge is that, 1) Chrome use Secure DNS by default. Currently it doesn't even have a secure dns flag because it's enabled by default and even lets you choose any other providers directly from settings. How come Edge don't have this yet! But I guess they will have this soon. 2) If you have top sites enabled on your Edge home page then it loads data from msn. I see that cookies from "msn.com, ntp.msn.com" is allowed by default on the home page. Why Microsoft would need to load top sites of home page from a third party source? Why can't they use internal data for that like Firefox do. There's always a certain delay like a second or less for top sites to come into view when the browser is open as well as a new tab is opened because like I said the resource is loaded from ntp.msn.com. Here ntp stands for 'new tab page". I don't know how Chrome does this, external source or internal but similar to Firefox there's no delay in Chrome anyway. Ow also the home page loads something from "scorecardresearch.com" because I see when the home page is loaded this third party cookie is blocked by the browser because I have set it to block all third party cookies. Again, what my browser home page has anything to do with this site? What are you doing Microsoft!!! 3) Another extremely stupid thing is, to send a link from your PC browser to your mobile you need Microsoft's Your Phone app. Without it you can't send links to your mobile and vice versa.
