Microsoft tried to make a browser that had an edge, and they just decided fuck it and gave it the name Edge.

I use Edge whenever something needs to stream on a Windows PC, unlike other Chromium builds it is capable of hardware acceleration and therefor 4k streaming. Whenever you watch 4k on Google Chrome it isn't really that high quality.

Ff has that feature too. It's if anything more secure than remembering passwords because at least you still need the expiration date and cvc (unless edge saves that too).

Idk, I really like Edge. It just has bad reputation due to Internet Explorer... It is actually very good imo.

It depends on what circles you're in I suppose. But I suspect you're right for most people that dislike it. For some of us it's the Chromium engine it runs on, and/or the company it comes from.

Edit: So more ideological reasons. I imagine the browser itself works fine.
