Edit: Looks like you can opt-out of that “new look and feel” pretty easily under the appearance settings but still, whats with putting rounded corners everywhere?
Edit 2: “Explore the web with a softer, more friendly aesthetic featuring rounded corners […] Designed to complement your operating system, whether on Windows 11, MacOS, or Linux.” The fuck does that mean? Windows 11 fair enough but most Linux distros don’t look like that at all.
I gotta say I love that Microsoft has the self confidence to think that there are people who use edge on Linux.
There are. It was surprising to me but apparently there is a decent number of people who use edge on Linux.
I use it to access bing chat.
Firefox for everything else
You can use Bing chat on FF too if you set your user agent to the one edge uses
Is there even a version of edge for Linux??
Yea.
It’s reskinned chromium. You can google it if you want. One of the top links is a .deb for me (I am running debian).
That’s … just what Edge is? On every OS it’s Chromium, they’re not shy about that fact. In fact they made a big deal of advertising that they were switching from whatever engine they were trying to half-bake when “new” Edge debuted.
Oh my, I had absolutely no idea. How long until microsoft comes out with Microsoft Office for Linux and it’s just reskinned LibreOffice
Edge is built on Chromium for every OS. When they developed it they said they were using Chromium. This is not special for Linux.
