I haven’t tried DoH for a bit on Edge. I flipped the switch and put in my NextDNS address and it automatically switches back to using my ISP. Even the preset ones so this. Is it currently broken?

Yup, it's broken. Tried Google, Adguard, Cloudflare, NextDNS and Quad9 none of them worked. Feedback sent.

Sent feedback as well. In fact running pktmon command I saw that it is sending DNS queries over port 53 even when "Use current provider" is selected.

Microsoft Edge 100 improves Sleeping Tabs ability to save more resources - gHacks Tech News

Microsoft Edge 100 improves the resources saved by Sleeping Tabs. It has a new Performance monitor to indicate the memory usage.

www.ghacks.net

The announcement from the company says that Edge will put 8% more tabs to sleep, to save more resources. How does that work? Pages that are sharing a browsing instance with another page will be put to sleep. This allows Sleeping Tabs save up to 85% of memory, and 99% CPU usage on average. Changing the Efficiency mode in the Performance pop-up panel, to "Always", will snooze tabs faster.

That is quite impressive, and if you are interested in crunching the numbers, you will probably like this. Edge 100 has added a new performance monitor, to provide a way for users to see how Sleeping Tabs is helping save system resources. To access it, click on the three-dot menu and select Performance. This will open a pop-up window that displays the number of tabs that are sleeping, and a graphical indicator to show you the percentage of memory savings with sleeping tabs, and remaining usage. You can pin the Performance monitor to stay on top, to keep an eye on the resource usage. It is a decent way to monitor the system, though Windows' Task Manager still beats it since you can get a breakdown of the resource usage on a per-tab basis.

There is no option to put tabs to sleep manually, though users have requested the feature on Microsoft's feedback hub. You can whitelist websites in the edge://settings/system page's Optimise Performance section. This will prevent Edge from snoozing tabs from the sites, it can be useful for sites that you use for email, instant messaging, sports websites that automatically refresh to update the scores, etc. You can set tabs to be snoozed after a specific duration, e.g. 5 minutes.
