A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This definitely has some Microsoft Edge vibes to me.

Somehow Microsoft was still quiet sucessfull with Edge in large parts of the society.

Yes that's true and I'm sure it isn't that bad. I just don't like the way they are trying to force their browser on everyone which is why I try to avoid Edge as much as possible. It's kind of a personal principle now. Microsoft likely doesn't care about that though since, as you said, they are successful with that technique.

I actually don’t mind Edge now that Bing chat is a thing

Funny enought i installed Edge on Linux in order to use Teams decently. But happily avoid Microsoft elswhere.

Teams works fine in Vivaldi or any chromium browser on Linux.

I'm still using the flatpak and just discovered I couldn't share my screen during a video call. I know the native app is deprecated. Can you help me understand what works or doesn't if I install Edge? Is assume then I'd load my teams URL in edge and get the same familiar interface, just in a different wrapper.
