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.

Edge has become so hopelessly bloated in the past two years. Really sad. They had a good thing going.

I prefer Edge to Chrome (for Chromium uses, Firefox all the way for anything else), but Edge is starting to get so bloated. It's becoming reminiscent of the old Internet Explorer toolbars. They just have so many features the screen is getting cluttered

I'm using Edge for work and I know what you're talking about, but you can just turn almost all of it off. Edge is pretty customizable. It doesn't beat Firefox but it's still decent.

The Edge Secure Network uses Cloudflare's routing to encrypt your internet connection and secure your data against online threats, such as hacking attempts.

Yeah as if using a vpn helps you from being hacked what a trash article.

Also if you don't pay for the product you are the product.

Please remember that Microsoft Edge is the worst Browser Privacy-wise. Every image you view in the Browser is sent to Microsofts servers and they will combine the tracking from their browser with the tracking from Windows to get to know you very well
