Is NOW the Time to Switch to Microsoft Edge?

I already switched to Edge 5 months ago, and never look back. Lots of amazing features that suits to my needs. I really love the tab sleep feature :)

[@thbabni]

Chrome is for everything entertainment for me. Edge is my go to for work, school and when I am gaming and I have a school 365 subscription so its a no brainer I never did the full switch but I use them both on a daily basis. Most of the time when I want to download something, chrome usually has a low download speed and downloads that are less than 100MB say they will take 1 day and when I take that same link into Edge, it download at almost max speed

[@boltowo]

[@krousamarnhpang375]

As a teacher, I find Edge to be most suitable for me, especially the immersive reader tool. It's so awesome. I think Microsoft can win the hearts of many users with this tool.

[@Yatukih_001]

If I was a techer I would tell my students never to use a browser they cannot access. If a student asked me what this means, I would point out at the fact that browsers which open up in small windows and refuse to expand are dead search engines. Dead search engines, exams and assignments should not be recommended as tools for education.

If you work in a Microsoft / Office 365 environment, Edge really beats all other browsers. The added functionality for business intern searches etc is really great.

[@aliasuser_]

What do you mean by business intern searches? I don't quite understand

[@metinhesenov]

@@aliasuser_ maybe he is talking about enterprise search feature of Bing I am not sure

[@_w_w_]

@@aliasuser_ He probably meant internal search. Edge's search is very tied in with Bing, which is tied in with Sharepoint, OneDrive and also on. Yeah, because I stumbled onto a coworker's private file that way... With Edge and 365 (and also Windows), none of your file is private by default, most settings are very loosely focused on convenience instead of privacy.

[@aliasuser_]

[@Yatukih_001]

If users cannot access Edge because the browser refuses to expand and stays as a small window, then they are unable to use Edge as a Microsoft / Office 365 environment. They should use another fully functional browser.

[@abdirisakmubarik4771]

I switched to Microsoft Edge Oct last year, it has been the best experience I was looking for, all those features you mentioned became one of my favorite features of all times. Thanks for recognizing the amazing features done by Microsoft and sharing with us, Kevin.

I just switched to Edge weeks ago after I found the Android version to be impressive as well. I need browser settings and bookmarks to sync across multiple platform like Windows and my Android device and I say both the Windows and Android Edge improved a a lot. Will stick to it until Chrome managed to convince me to switch back again.

Using Edge for a year now and I must admit the fact, it's better than Chrome in almost every aspect for me. I don't even think about switching browsers now.

[@firekidanbelay7239]

Good to know Edge so much like this. Edge is my long time browser and it is the best. It also works fine on poor internet connection. I'm a little disappointed that Microsoft Edge has given up its support for offline immersive reader and EPUB reading. 👍

[@mortarmopp3919]

I started using edge in 2019 when the new version came out. I waited until then because the earlier version didn't support the Dark Reader plugin I liked. The fact that it was based on Chromium was even more enticing and I liked the added features that it provided such as the snipping tool.

[@leonahjaneenaje6576]

I used ms edge browser from my old to new laptop. What I liked the most in this browser is that I can bookmark a lot of sites and show them in an icon. It loads faster too. It's a good browser for me.

[@varunbaliga7334]

I have been using edge ever since windows came out with edge, I was sad to see the old edge go, because it was so light on both the CPU and RAM, especially coming from a dual core 4 gb ram system. Even after having a beast of a PC, i still use edge because once again it just suits my needs.

[@carlosgaleana11]

Thanks, Kevin! I mostly use Edge now in the workplace. The Read Aloud function helps me listen to articles while get a screen time break.

[@ianmcquin]

Just switched from Firefox recently and my god Edge has been wonderful for me, love it. So many more features that I actually use and all the benefits of Chromium.

After so many years with Chrome, then Brave, 8months now that I'm on Edge and even in Macos, I use Edge. One of the main reason is its synchronization across all my devices and platforms. Thanks Kevin for the new features I discovered with you today

[@gt2scale]

I have been back and forth between Chrome and Edge for while. My favorite setup is to log in to all my work accounts (Office, Sharepoint, etc.) on Edge then my personal Google stuff (Gmail, KZbin, etc.) and also my personal Microsoft accounts in Chrome. This allows me to compartmentalize my flows and have multiple accounts active of OneDrive and Outlook without any login conflicts.

[@hundvd_7]

What you're doing is exactly what multiple profiles are made for. Though I understand if it's easier to differentiate between two apps. Still, if you start missing some of Edge's features, you _can_ use a work and a personal profile easily

Very informative, I learned about a number of features that were completely new to me. I've been using Edge now for about five months, and I'm happy with it. I might even say I'd recommend it over Chrome, but either browser seems quite good. For work I'm using a mostly Microsoft web-based suite, so I think that tips the scales towards Edge. Maybe a future episode you could evaluate whether the Microsoft suite performs better on Edge versus Chrome.

[@rolfbackstrom6029]

I think you are right Kevin! I used to be a big fan of Chrome but I should test-drive Edge now. There are so many improvements happening. Thank you very much for the video!

[@kousikadhikary]

I always try to use the in built apps of my devices. So I have been using Edge for a long time now. Back when it originally launched it didn't have extension support so it was a no no for me but when it got extensions I started using it. It was okay for quite some time but the performance became really bad overtime. After the chromium version launched I switched to it after a few months and am happily using it since. I miss the quick set tab aside feature but the performance it hugely improved over the last engine. Some new feature needs to be improved but I think that will happen overtime as they always take feedback on those features.

[@matthewwhitaker4849]

I just reinstalled Edge on my Mac earlier today. After deciding between Safari, Chrome and Edge, I am going to use Edge as my main browser. I also use it on Windows, so everything will sink up. As someone who is blind, I love how accessible the browser is for all platforms. I also love the fact it has the read aloud feature built in. In Chrome, you have to get an extention. Safari doesn't even have that anywhere. Love watching all of your videos. Keep up the amazing work.
