Edge is my daily driver and has been for a couple of years. Seems faster than Chrome, but maybe that’s just my perception.
I think these haters are hating because Microsoft. Or, they’re too ignorant to realize Edge is Chrome under the hood.
I wouldn’t have a problem with Edge if it wasn’t always running in the background, it’s quite spooky. Not to talk about when it gives me the popups to not change the browser, it is my computer and I will do what I want with it
Firefox always runs in the background on my PC also. I’m sure there’s a way to disable it, but by default it’s always there.
Sometimes you let some apps linger but edge is in the background from the beginning. And I’m sure you can disable an option in firefox but to get rid of edge the only option is the command line and erasing all of its files until the next update comes around
Not sure if it really could be faster than Chrome since they share the same web renderer (chromium) but Edge is definitely better optimised than Chrome when it comes to memory usage since MS has a better understanding of how its own OS works on a lower system level.
