Walked into my partner's office and noticed he was using #MicrosoftEdge on #Linux. When I inquired what motivated him, he said he was tired of fighting #Firefox's poor performance on Linux. Frequent crashes and high CPU utilization.

We agreed that while Linux users might love #Mozilla, Mozilla doesn't love us back. For my part, I'm shifting over to #GnomeWeb despite my grievances about bookmark usability. I'll adjust.

@scottjenson I have found that the products which are specifically tuned to help you write are slightly better than the ones that are generic chat spaces; see the #BingChat compose mode in #MicrosoftEdge and also the Write tool from #DeepL.

1. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/features/compose
2. https://www.deepl.com/write

My preference of the two is the DeepL #AI because it's more about editing your words than writing fresh text.

Interesting.

I can't see too much on what they log, but #Microsoft :microsoft: are offering a free VPN service in #MicrosoftEdge. Up to 5GB of free network traffic every month. They don't route popular streaming services through the #VPN.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/edge/features/edge-secure-network-vpn

A screenshot of the promotional page on Microsoft's website for Edge VPN. It reads:

"Edge Secure Network VPN
Get online security protection that is smart enough to turn on when you need it the most– like when you’re connected to an open Wi-Fi network. Edge Secure Network uses VPN technology to stop third parties and bad actors from accessing your sensitive information, so you can make purchases online, fill out forms, and keep your browsing activity away from prying eyes. And best of all, it’s built in and free in Microsoft Edge. "

OK, I finally found one single thing to envy from #MicrosoftEdge that I don't know if #MozillaFirefox can properly implement using extensions: a way to group and pin tabs directly on the tab bar instead of on a submenu. Furthermore it can automatically give a name to each tab group - which I fear is a bit too invasive, as it must be sending info to Bing to generate the name, but otherwise it comes really handy!

(PS: And I just learned that the ability was added almost TWO WHOLE YEARS AGO)

Why is #firefox the only browser out there that respects the pinned tabs function and doesn't overwrite/open a page inside that pinned tab. It just makes sense that it should open new page/site should be opening in a new tab. I've pinned these things for a reason.

From what I can tell, it looks like you'll only be previewing new features and not whole new builds of the browser, but regardless, this is a great addition!

Okay, so I don't know if this is an intentional change or just a bug, but I'm liking the more minimal looking dark mode thing going on in #MicrosoftEdge Canary.

Screenshot of Microsoft Edge Canary version 117.0.2044.0 running on Windows 11 with dark mode enabled. The browser is a lighter grey than before, and the UI elements in the Title Bar all have a little more padding between them. And the actual tabs themselves are the same shape and size as before, but it's just outlined now, which makes it look more minimal.

Scenario: multiple email accounts in #outlook. Clicking on a link in one of the outlook.com email accounts opens the link in an #Edge browser profile associated with that email address. This started about a month ago.

This is very annoying because when I'm using saved passwords, they are associated with one of my Azure AD Premium-licensed Edge profiles. I do not have saved passwords in my personal accounts, making it cumbersome to sign in.

Furthermore, if I were to store passwords in my personal accounts, I'd lose Azure AD Password Protection.

So... here's the question: how do I get Outlook to open links in my default or last-used Edge browser profile instead of the profile associated w/ my personal email account?

For a bit more tech savvy people: Why do chromium based browsers (specially Edge) consume more memory?

I mostly use #firefox and #bravebrowser but often would access GPT4 through Edge. And the system would become very slow (both windows and mac) with fan sound coming out!

It is relatively much faster with Firefox.

It's kinda jarring how often Mozilla's UI team seems to release where the puck is moving months in advance - here, I am sure they were tipped by Apple. I suppose #microsoft newly slavish devotion to copying #macos was going to ensure that the new look would be coming to Windows, too.

It's sad also that Microsoft managed to release a copy that avoids #a11y issues like bug 1704347 before Mozilla fixed it.

I couldn't find the CSS that was causing an element to draw a border unexpectedly in my web app.

Thanks to this development tools setting in Edge/Chrome (Dev Tools > Rendering > Emulate a Focused Page), I found the culprit in seconds.

There are some other handy debugging tools in that same area too.

#MicrosoftEdge is the absolute thirst browser. You can barely click any UI element without MS telling you about their other shit.

Aside from the #Blippy icon being an unasked-for eye sore (it fits in neither stylistically nor size-wise) there's now a sidebar on the right with search, shopping coupons, games and an "e-tree" etc. because of course they are.

It's only a matter of time until people get to see ads in their #Windows start menu.

What's that? — Oh, they do that already? NO WAY

This is getting ridiculous, isn't it

Well, at least Edge didn't inject a Bing/Clippy ("Blippy") overlay, "It looks like you want to install an extension, do you need help?" #SmallWins

#Google #Microsoft #MicrosoftEdge

Screenshot of the Chrome Web Store showing an extension, with an overlay injected by MS Edge ("You can now add extensions from the Chrome Web Store to Microsoft Edge - Click on 'Add to Chrome'") and another overlay shown by the site ("Switch to Chrome? Google recommends using Chrome when using extensions and themes")

Have a site with an invalid SSL cert error that won't let you through? In Edge, just type "thisisunsafe" on your keyboard with focus on the browser warning page and you're in. #SSL #MicrosoftEdge

Do you have any thoughts on this new prompt that Microsoft puts up when you click on a link in the Microsoft Outlook app for Android? The right option is always to use the system #DefaultBrowser! #BrowserChoice #MicrosoftEdge

Bottom sheet dialog prompt asking you to choose between opening a link with “Microsoft Edge, recommended by Microsoft” and “Default browser, configure in Settings”.

Feature mit Bug: Microsoft Edge telefoniert besuchte Seiten nach Hause​

"Folgen von Creator". Die neue Funktion im Microsoft-Browser hat offenbar unerwünschte Nebenwirkungen: Edge schickt die URLs besuchter Seiten an eine Bing-API.​

@wilander #FediHelp Does anyone have a reliable method for uninstalling #MicrosoftEdge from Windows 10?

I found an article that described running an uninstaller from the command line, but it didn't work.

Can we stop for a second to point out that when viewing a PDF in Microsoft Edge, screen readers automatically snap to an accessible table of contents that make it extremely easy to jump to a specific spot in the document? Not sure if that’s a feature of tagged PDFs, or if since the PDF was tagged, Microsoft was able to generate an accessible table of contents. Either way, so useful!

New version of #MicrosoftEdge :microsoft: just dropped and the landing page suggests these new features:

1. A.I. powered copilot for the web
2. Edit images directly in the web browser
3. Share files across devices
4. Increased security

https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/edge/update/112?form=MT00EF&channel=stable&version=112.0.1722.34

The image editor works quite well; you can crop, recolour, draw, and add filters to an image, but its missing the ability to add text - which would mean you could instantly create memes from any image on the web 😆

oi! #MicrosoftEdge team! Someone over there went, hey peeps, here is a wizard wheeze, when we first start up, we'll go completely fullscreen without even any title bars, that'll get people's attention! and presumably whoever was in the room who said "this will be massively disorienting and weird and we should not do it, we are a window, not the most important thing in their life" was shouted down. Find the person who suggested it and got it approved and give them a wedgie or something.
