It's fine for me but I have seen people complaining about it on Reddit regularly over the years. It seems to happen to quite a few people but not to everyone. The last time I reinstalled Windows was in March 2023. It's not impossible that I'll have this problem if I reinstall windows again because in my experience, almost all the people who had this issue are new Edge users or installed Windows recently. I would lose my mind if it happened to me because syncing is essential for me.

Microsoft is discontinuing rounded tabs in Edge
In Microsoft Edge 128, which was released in the Stable Channel this week, Microsoft changed the description of the flag responsible for toggling on the rounded tabs feature. It now explicitly states that the ability to enable "floating" tabs with rounded corners is on its way out:
Changes browser tabs into rounded buttons. This feature will be discontinued soon. – Mac, Windows, Linux

What’s New in Microsoft Edge 128.0 Version
The new version of Microsoft Edge comes with following changes and updates:

Edge Bar has a changed entry point from the gear icon at the bottom of the Edge sidebar’s fly out menu to the edge://settings/sidebar page. Clicking the gear icon will now automatically open the edge://settings/sidebar page. The Edge Bar will now start automatically again when starting a Windows 10 device. The Edge Bar can be disabled using the StandaloneHubsSidebarEnabled policy.
Microsoft Edge will not receive updates on devices that have a CPU without SSE3.
The DiscoverPageContextEnabled policy is obsoleted in version 128 and later. Two new policies CopilotPageContext and CopilotCDPPageContext have been introduced to replace the previous policy.
The followable web feature and the EdgeFollowEnabled policy are deprecated.
A new policy ShowDownloadsInsecureWarningsEnabled is available to test the upcoming “Insecure Downloads over HTTP UI Warning” feature.
DevTools updates
Fixed various bugs and performance issues, improved reliability, announcements, feature updates, and policy updates.

"Enhance videos in Microsoft Edge" feature was removed from my Edge after the last update. Now I have to enable, "Microsoft Video Super Resolution" in edge://flags to make it appear. Found the solution here which is from February. Don't know if it's a bug or if they are randomly removing it from settings by default.

Solution on answers.microsoft.com

Is the option still there by default for other MT users?
