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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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??

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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).

[–] TurboDiesel 8 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh my, I had absolutely no idea. How long until microsoft comes out with Microsoft Office for Linux and it's just reskinned LibreOffice

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Edge is built on Chromium for every OS. When they developed it they said they were using Chromium. This is not special for Linux.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do. It's more secure than any other alternative. Not private, but really, really secure.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How is Edge secure in any way? It isn’t even open source & and both Google (Chromium) and Microsoft add their code to it, so even if Chromium were more secure than Firefox, you could just normal Chromium, couldn’t you?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Not being open source ≠ not safe.

Microsoft ships hardened Chromium basically, with sandboxing turned up to eleven.

They also run their SmartScreen filtering on top of that.

Also, Firefox is more private, not secure. Either you run LibreFox or it's less secure than Edge by default.
