Edge was fine, i use it at work to further separate personal use from work use further. It’s vertical tabs are top tier and being able to have the dev tools have vertical tabs is also a massive plots for productivity. However the latter is getting removed for seemingly no reason and once that’s gone there’s no boon to using edge anymore and I’ll just use a separate Firefox profile or use some chromium browser for work.
When? it always sucked monkey balls… when MS finally gave up and turned Edge into basically chrome with an ugly theme, it was a leap forward… but they soon enshitified it so bad it quickly became a complete bloated mess
It’s developers tools, as is is better than chromes.
And like i said in my original comment it’s vertical tabs are one of the best implementations out there at the moment.
It has sensible tab folder features which I usually don’t use in other browsers but in edge they’re great.
It also has what they call workspaces that keeps the exact state of your tabs across signed in instances if the browser irregardless of device (it even syncs in real-time - which has helped me in times at work when i can remote into multiple different devices on our network).
Granted i can understand on personal devices the signed in workspaces may sound awful to most but on a device where i already have to be signed in to a Microsoft account for work anyway, it’s a moot point for me. My work laptop is the only windows device i have in the house if that’s worth any merit. Windows is awful, getting worse by the way and edge will soon be following suit so even though I’m praising it in its current state, I can’t see me continuing to do so for much longer.
Vivaldi is unusable for me because you can’t have the bookmarks bar only show on the new tab screen, and they seem unwilling to add that in to save face in a few discussions they’ve had about that feature, it’s weird.

Firefox vertical tabs are better IMO. At least you can close them when minimized, which Edge cannot.
Firefox has tree style tabs add-on. Gamechanger
It’s built into Firefox now.
really? able to nest nultiple times etc?
I’m not sure about nesting, but Containers works well with them.

As a base browser. I think edge is better than standard Chrome if you want Chromium.
why? (if you don’t mind me asking)
I find it slower than chromium with a ton of oddly organized settings

Oh didn’t know Edge has workspace that functions similar to Firefox multi container. Not that I am going to change to Edge, but it’s still neat.
Are the vertical tabs better than Vivaldi? If tabs are the metric, Vivaldi is better.
My primary is Firefox because fuck chrome, but if I had to compare Edge to other chromium implementations I would go with Vivaldi.

My primary is Firefox too by the way.
