Thanks
thanks for sharing Sumit Dhiman
woah very nice!
Thanks for the information.
Great tip!
I tried a 48-hour experiment of using Edge instead of Chrome as my primary browser and have not gone back to Chrome since then. Six months in and I am still on it. The performance upgrades are serious. RAM and CPU usage is down and the battery gets a real boost. The best part is the browser history, extensions all remained the same.
My brother told me that chrome gets more virus for some reason and I never used chrome again since lol
Better ram/cpu usage is great but does it thrash the file system as bad as chrome or the cringe of firefox?
Edge is affecting my brain. It brainwashed me into bloating my linux install.
@@evilstone9946 lOl. I would like to use a real alternative to chromium. I'm not real fond of Mozilla either because it will keep trim working overtime with all the background caching/analytics it does. I was almost as if Mozilla was even logging mouse movements.
Same for me - coming up for a month on Edge now - doesn't look like I'll go back to Chrome
Your first point is actually what concerns me most about the egde browser: Privacy. I just think that Edge is not doing the best job for protecting my data and I also dont trust Microsoft to not use my Data, because they already did in other cases where said they wouldnt. All of the features you pointed out are available on other browsers with add-ons, so the only thing that could disturb me is privacy and this is the main reason im using firefox instead of one of the chromium derivates.
Even Google is not trustworthy. I stop using Chrome a long time ago.
Firefox on top
Brave is the privacy browser.
Firefox UI sucks. Feels too heavy
That's a fair point.
I never thought I'd find a Microsoft Edge Support group. I hope you're all doing well. Sent from the firefox gang.
😂
Surrender your data now! You MUST be tracked for your own good and the good of all!
Chuckle...
@Adker newpipe brave linux. Not really a problem
@Adker yes brave. and brave is just based off chromium doesn't mean there the same thing and it is idiotic to say that. It is like saying that chrome os is linux because its based off linux but that isn't true.
But hey I'm using both haha
Leila, you forgot the PDF capabilities Edge has. They are so much better than Chrome. As someone who doesn’t use Adobe Acrobat, Edge is a solid alternative
Good to know.
Thanks for the tip!
Very true. I have stopped using Acrobat.
It annoys me that Edge wants to open PDF files no matter how many time I try to make my PDF reader the default. It's as if Windows has a little program running in the background to keep changing defaults back to what IT wants.
Yes the feature is a definite plus.
I'm a sysadmin and I've never liked the feel of Chrome. For every other customization and many more, there's Firefox. Chromium is incredibly rigid. That being said, Edge is fantastic and I do like using it for my work browser. It makes for a very efficient work environment. I use both Edge and Firefox in personal and work environments.
I liked the vertical tabs. However for the RAM, I tried to open same tabs in both browsers and the RAM usage was almost the same.
Main issue that we all know that Google sale our info to advertisers, but with Microsoft no one can tell for sure where the information will end up.
Anyway, nice video, this was the closest ever that someone bring me to use Edge
I know this is very 1990s but I still love Mozilla Firefox. Please don't think less of me.
It's my favourite browser and always thought that it's on par with chrome but after seeing this video, never knew it is so under used!!
Firefox lite version
Firefox is great now with the Quantum update, it's light speed and has tab containers which no other browser has.
@@gerald8573 Vivaldi has them.
@@amjan Where? I use Vivaldi and haven't found this option.
At this point, I my life legit wouldn't be the same without collections. It makes research and organization so much more intuitive.
I had immediately changed to Edge as soon as I got hold of it a few years back, I just saw the improvement over Chrome and how much less memory it was using, the only issue currently with me on edge is that some extensions will bug out.
Ram management and battery consuming is another point in favor of edge, I noticed 15% difference in ram usage when opening 1 tab of a large google sheet file
Also my LG Gram is doing great with a minimum of 9h when pushing it hard (60% of my daily workflow is done on the browser in cloud apps)
the biggest thing for me is that edge supports 4k streaming for Netflix. Chrome's streaming on netflix is only 720p
Thanks for the info!
Chrome is 1080p. Edge is 4k. But if you download Netflix for Windows, you can even add HDR to your 4K content.
why stream in a web browser when u can use an App on ur pc
@@evanmanni2723 Cuz it can lag
Well, I preferred install netflix apps then…
I’m deaf and I can’t ditch Chrome because they have awesome accessibility: Live Caption.
I need captions where did you enable it?
What about bookmarks? How are they handled if switching from chrome to edge?
You can easily import your existing ones during setup.
I was using Chrome for years, but then I got a laptop that has HDD, which made Chrome become slower, and that's when I tried Edge, it loaded quicker than chrome and I found some cool features it had. Working with the pen tool in PDFs, blocking third-party cookies, reading mode feature. I just found out that you can group tabs and give color to them, so when you don't need to show them you can just simply minimize them.
Wow never thought someone else would notice, I found the tab grouping feature by accident too and I think it's another amazing idea
Chrome just hogs all your memory, so I definitely recommend Edge or Firefox
I would have never even though about switching before watching this. Really insightful video Leila :)
It kinda proves her point about Edge vs Chrome as far as what their core system is designed to do, Google = Collect your data for ad personalization, Edge = Collect Data, if you say it’s ok, solely to make your experience better. Search “Edge Insiders” to find the Dev and Beta builds. I highly suggest the Dev version.
@&34 904 vague...what is stupid? Also, you really felt the need to take the time to drop a comment and that's all you can drum up? FYI: If that is the case in the future, just don't comment. There is nothing wrong with thinking the video is not good, but just saying so does nothing. Give reasons, examples, ideas...or be like 90% of the internet and don't.
@Danilo which is better chrome or edge?
@Danilo Also, GET A LIFE, this is like a 4 month old comment. 6 month old Video. Would you buy a Chromebook or literally any other PC with Windows installed? Point Proven
@Danilo Not watching the video, looking at my comment and going, “yea, that guy who said that 4 months ago will totally know what I am talking about and care”. I don’t, you don’t know shit about me, stop making assumptions and comments and tagging me. I don’t care about your opinion.
Hey you. I have a question. Do you use Microsoft account or Local Account in Windows 11? Best regards from Sune in Denmark.
Hey Sune! I use multiple machines, so Microsoft account is how I roll.
@@LeilaGharani Thanks. I often visit your channel. It has helped me a lot m
@@LeilaGharani Today I'm gonna make a fresh install with Windows 11 Pro.
Hi Leila, thank you for you great videos. My Edge browser doesn't have the book icon for immersive reader. How do I activate it?
It won't work on all website. It works for a few articles and pages like Wikipedia, news pages etc
The tutorials you provide have been very helpful to me. I've learned some much. Thank you for taking the time and putting these well developed programs out there.

Yes, she is indeed one of the best online-teachers. Having said that: THIS particular video is not a lesson but a Microsoft-Sales activity.
I do agree with you. I have used a lot of browsers including chrome but I found edge is better than all other browsers. Windows 11 with edge browser is really very comfortable, feature rich and very fast. I love the way edge handles pdf files. So many useful features. Really fantastic browser.
Are there any bookmark sync services that can be installed on edge and chrome? It's ok import on setup but I would rather not be in the situation where I have to think which browser I bookmarked something in
edge has bookmark sync feature. it will be synced to the Microsoft account you used to create the profile in browser.
@@mamun1900 my question was sync between the two browsers, realise each had it's own
I wasn’t aware of the immersive reader feature. Will definitely have to give that a try. Thanks for sharing.
in mac the voice is more confortable & u can change voices speed trigers
I've been using it for a while. Aside from neat QoL stuff like tab groups and sleeping tabs, I just like the fact that it eats less RAM than Chrome.
edge is quite good for some stuff like family safety and all that ig but I'll stick to chrome
@@xtwilliamplayzyt4809 Ok,keep with your ram eater,cpu eater
Opera GX has a lot of QoL things too and you can even limit the ram usage on the browser too, has built in privacy protection and ad block and its pretty customizable in his looks

Recently i've switched to windows 10. And i've decided at least to look at the Edge. I thought i'll just play with it and will return to my Chrome. But after couple times of using it i've made the Edge my default browser. :)
Most of all i was amazed with immersive reader. I couldn't believe that this is not just a voice recording, so real this reading is, so i like to listen the books with this wonderful feature. And my favorite english voice is Dilara (Persian).🥰
Greetings from upstate NY, USA. Thank you for the informative videos. I had used IE for many years, switched to Chrome to use Gmail for the last 8 years or so. I am a neophyte in the computer/internet community, but I have learned from your videos enormously. I will use EDGE in my new HP - a modestly-priced one, since I abstain from gaming. I am in awe of your expertise, manner of explaining subject matter, and ease of discourse. You have a dedicated admirer of your videos in this humble bloke. I plan to watch every one of your videos to navigate my new laptop. Best to you.
I totally agree. I converted to Edge as soon as it was launched. I knew it was going to be similar to Chrome because it’s based on the same code. However, the big reason for me was further immersing myself in Microsoft’s ecosystem. I already use Windows 10, OneDrive, Excel, Word, OneNote etc. You get greater synergy when using products made by the same company.
Thanks for your feedback, Andrew!
LoL! I’ve just left an almost identical comment, with two cons, though.
"You get greater synergy when using products made by the same company" Yes! And I would be at a loss without access to VBA in all applications in the MS Office suite.
Keeping everything 'in the family' is brilliant.
Yeah, even your comments are incredibly Microsoft-y.
I totally agree with you Leila . I also use frequently the "collections" (Ctrl+Shift+Y) in edge.
True, collections are great too. Thanks for the reminder :)
I had no idea, you've made me discover something immensely useful. Thank you
Does edge come pre installed on windows 11 as I’m thinking of getting my first Microsoft desktop.
Can I (and if I can is it safe) import all tabs, password, saved sites, etc from Chrome to Edge? Or should I just let things progress naturally as I go to use Edge (nearly) exclusively?
I use edge on my iPhone as well. Two more added features are the AdBlock built-in browser mobile version and the ability to continue reading a page on Desktop which will send the page automatically to the edge on the desktop.
For me to switch to Edge, Edge should have a supreme usability in Android. Also Edge should stop pushing MSN feed to users.
You can change that in settings.
@@namanmehta3666 Still not convincing for me bro. I have tried twice but switched back to google chrome
You can literally turn off MSN with a click or two. Also, bing images/videos in edge are beautiful.
I just bought a Chromebook. I'm having a hard time finding a antivirus app. They list them as being compatible with Chromebook, but when I download, and try to install, error stating will not work with this OS. I even went to Chrome extensions, nothing. Tried all the major ones. AVG, Avast, Norton... Any suggestions?
Thank you - I consider myself an advanced used and I always liked chrome. However, I have found myself using edge more & more ever since they revamped it. I agree with you that it has come along way. I also want to say that I enjoy your 5 minute videos. They are so informative.
While most pretty influencers out there tried to attract people's attention using stupid stuff, Leila showed us that public attention can be achieved through useful and considerate information. I've seen your videos in many different aspects. All were spectacular. Keep up the great job and we believe you're gonna hit 5 million subscribers soon! :)
Yes, her videos are amazing
but she ain't pretty though
💀
She's pretty, you say. Didn't notice, LOL. (everybody noticed.)
@@randomsircle Why would you say that? It was unnecessary and very childish.
Never thought I’d go back to a Microsoft browser...but if Leila says so...that’s the way it goes 😆
Haha, I hope you'll like it.
Honestly, I'm going to give it a try for the same reason.
@@JaredGritzmaker The same for me...
Same!!! :)
Same!!!
How do you get that Start menu?
At that moment, the really missed feature for me is the groupped tabs in Edge which is exist in Chrome. I have many sites open at the same time, but I would like to category them by topic, optionally give a name to the group. This is a very space save solution for the tab bar.
edge does this as well! just click shift and tabs you want to group. you can also classify them by color
Just drag the tab to another tab and they’ll group up lol it’s as easy as that
I tried logging in to the 3 gmail profiles I use in Chrome, and Edge forces you to pick either a Microsoft account or one assigned by your organization. I'm done with giving it a chance.
I've been using the new edge since launch and absolutely love it! The Microsoft ecosystem is becoming better and better in my opinion.
Yeah, I have also switched from Chrome to edge because both give approximately the same Browsing speed. Provided that, Edge consumes less memory than Chrome. This would be definitely useful for Laptops(notepad series) users.
Absolutely true
Quite the influencer. I had a look at Edge and the Vertical tabs, compatibility to extensions etc convinced me to switch over. Grouping tabs is particularly handy. The only problem I have is the google voice search seems to be blocked as it gives the message "No internet connection" but typing a search in works fine.
I'm testing both the public release version & dev version. The dev version has colored tabs. Colored tabs are coming.
Thanks for the tip, Mike!
life changer like an Ads/Dns blocker like Brave browser, hope ur colors help u live fast and secure XD
now i thinking about all millions of dollars wasted in developed months/years of code for colors HAHAHA
It still spies on you, but friendlier.🙂
Yeah but If you compare both of them It just track you 6% while google is 70%
The difference is HUGE. She states it in the video that Google’s business model is all about gathering data for ads. Compare that to Edge, which when MSFT gathers data, it is for cross-program personalization/flow. So you can work in Word etc., open edge and your homepage or the extension will show you the documents you were last working on. Again, with MSFT it’s all a choice, you can turn it all on (no tracking) or off (super tracking).
@Christoper Renshaw, yes. The point is MS's business model is not *dependent* on advertising. “Spying” might still be unwanted, but it’s way less of an issue.
@@slybandit8117 i guess its still full of spyware tho
Apple is the worst offender of privacy
there is a problem that i cant solve on edge.. when i switch tabs the movies will lag out and video audio will be out of sync. not having this problem on chrome. any idea anyone?
Yep, I dumped Chrome a year ago, but my nr 1 browser is Firefox. (I use it 99% of the time).
If you value your privacy, then obviously Microsoft as a company is getting worse all the time. Just look at what they are doing with Windows 11.
I think using Edge as your main browser is not a smart thing to do.
If you have the Dev version of Edge, which I highly recommend, right-clicking a web-page will bring up all of the options/shortcuts. You can even Cast any page to a device! Lastly, another one of my favorite things about Edge, the Options/Settings. They allow you to really customize the browser, how it searches, what can track you, themes and more. You can even sign into Edge with your regular Microsoft profile and your school/work profile (for 365) and the browser will auto switch profiles to match the page. Love Edge Dev and Windows 11!
MS Edge starts off looking clean and cool - just like Chrome, but Edge has inherited is founder's desire to control everyone in the world. After trying it on and off alongside Chrome for a few months and being reasonably pleased, following the last update, 111.0.1661.41, I am utterly infuriated by MS's constant and irremovable insistence that I must have it's flashing and visually disturbing MSN news feed on every new tab I open - either that or I can't have the new tab 'speed dial' links displayed. Yes I've tried following every piece of help I can find on the web - I simply don't get the options when I choose a custom page layout. This is driving me crazy - just like almost every release of almost every other piece of MS software I've ever used.
What I like most about chrome is synchronisation. I can open and share tabs from my PC to laptop to phone
Same in edge
Edge can do the same thing
Same as in opera
thank you for the video Leila, useful , some feature in common on both browser is, sometimes they say edge/chrome is using your camera, what does it mean? could we avoid it?
I have a Chromebook OS for a Desktop can i get Edge on this OS?
This is really good, I my self recently switched from Chrome to Opera GX it has some good features as well.
Yess thank god someone mentioned Opera GX
Microsoft Edge has improved a lot since they switched to the Chromium engine. It may use the same engine as Chrome but Microsoft made sure it isn't just a Chrome reskin, adding a lot of useful features that Chrome doesn't have. While I am not too keen on vertical tabs myself, I see why some people could find them really useful.
Also, Chrome has an annoying feature where muting one tab mutes all tabs which are connected to the same site. For example, if you have multiple livestreams open and want to leave some running in the background while you watch one of them, you can't mute all of the tabs except one because all the tabs are connected to the same site (UA-cam, Twitch or whatever) and muting one of the tabs mutes all of the tabs. Firefox deals with muted tabs in a much more logical and less frustrating way, allowing you to mute a single tab even if multiple tabs are connected to the same site. Although it is based on Chromium, Edge opts to follow Firefox's more logical way of doing things which is much better.
However, Firefox is still my favourite browser. Chrome and Edge both lack a menu bar, Firefox is unquestionably more private than both of them with built in tracking protection which is turned on by default, and Firefox is the only browser with a somewhat significant browser share that doesn't use the Chromium engine. If Firefox dies, Google will basically have a monopoly on browser engines (except for on Mac where people can use Safari.) This is bad for everyone, no matter what browser they use, because a lack of competition means Google don't need to keep adding new features and making Chromium based browsers faster. After all, there would literally be no popular alternative to them. Firefox has made some questionable design changes recently, and I hate the new look. But it still has a bunch of features which imo put it ahead of the competition.
If Firefox dies, due to web developers no longer supporting it or Mozilla running out of funding and developers leaving, I might consider using Edge rather than Chrome. This is actually a very real possibility in the next few years, with Firefox's decreasing share of the market and reliance on Google paying Mozilla to make them the default browser. Microsoft would have to win my trust back first. I currently don't trust Microsoft Edge with my bookmarks. A few years ago, before Edge switched to Chromium, I imported my bookmarks and tried it out for a bit. After a few days, Edge forgot some of my bookmarks for some reason. I know it's using a different engine now but I still don't trust Edge. Also, the current UI for Edge is really ugly imo. Although perhaps they will change Edge's UI on Windows 10 alongside the changes they have planned for its UI on Windows 11.
I'm glad Microsoft threw in the towel on IE.
That was a lot 😐, I need a drink of water 🥵
how many gigs of program files, program data, appdata does edge use? i ditched chrome coz it take more than 1gb and keep updates
I have so many favorites saved to tabs located on the top row that I can access on any given time. How do you see those tabs when you switch? I guess they call that the tool bar?
I also use a Surface device, and my battery lasts much longer with Edge than with Chrome - even though they're both Chromium. The reverse is true on Android..
thts becoz edge is system app for windows and chrome is system app for Android. System apps highly optimised and are managed better than anything 3rd party apps.
Probably less telemetry for Edge than for Chrome. Chrome synchronises data continuously to Google's servers which does consume a lot of power very quickly.
On Android your battery will last twice as long if you reinstall it with an AOSP-base ROM like Lineage OS but don't install the Google Apps. The Google Services layer installed by GApps (that you cannot uninstall once it on, you have to rebuild from scratch) is the main application constantly phoning home to Google and stealing all of your data - that is one of biggest causes of battery drain.
Windows 10 is not allowed in my home - it has far too much telemety and it's entire interface is rubbish anyway.
Battery on mobile isn't an issue. Chrome is an absolute mess on Android. It's only useful for syncing stuff with Android apps. Samsung Internet is the best browser for Android. Edge is 3rd/4th after Firefox.
@@chudchadanstud I don't know about Samsung Internet, I refuse to buy their crappy and locked down devices any more. They are as bad as Apple.
If you don't think battery is an issue, so be it. I do, and it doubles uptime without Google.
Thank you Leila. This is really good, I might consider the switch. I have however come to love the new chrome feature that allows you to group and label tabs. On the other hand, Edge allows you to create some sought of website playlists. I like how far we have come from the days of I.E
Most chromium browsers do this now. I use edge and it does this
Hi, How to turn off other people being able to show your passwords in Edge settings under passwords.
I love Edge and that I can run my work and personal accounts together. I also appreciate that Edge is checking my saved passwords against compromised data. This actually trigger for my wife's account and we got that password changed.
Pro tip: for admins or developers, Edge had multiuser functionality and also guest mode, far above from incognito only.
Chrome has that as well.
I use Edge and highly recommend it to everyone. I use it on my android phone and ipad too, primarily due to the security features. I hardly see any ads anywhere now. Edge is better in terms of speed and ram. The moment I used Chrome (before I uninstalled it), I could hear the pc or laptop fan working hard to function. Other thing is if you're a Office 365 user, then you surely would enjoy the integration of Edge along with its peer apps. You can add stuffs to your one note.
I only wish that MS gives an option for using the address bar along with Cortana. If the apps on all platforms have this feature, then the Office 365 users can enjoy a seemless ecosystem. I cannot add tasks on To Do using the Google Assistant, but if this comes out, I'll disable Google Assistant completely.
Great video, though I think another feature worth mentioning is Ctrl+Shift+K duplicates the slide, while in Chrome you don't have that shortcut
alt+d+enter too
Great insights (I love it) - Please show us a way to help in the UA-cam buffering as one fast forward the video, Thanks!
Excellent video leila. I am in the habit of giving all your videos a thumbs up before I even watch them on 🖥. I've also got around to clicking the bell 🔔 icon for notify all 😄

I used to add my local pdf to Collections, but nowadays it doesn't due to updated versions. How can be fixed in the updated versions? This really helps with school work and projects. thanks
I recently switched to Edge and like it a lot. One of the features I like a lot is open the pdf file in edge. You can do a lot of editing including adding text, write, erase and read where you can't do it in Chrome.
I totally agree.
Firefox allows you that same PDF feature and doesn't collect data you'd rather keep private.
Thank you for the information I didn't know that
I've actually found it's slightly better with RAM usage, so I use it with my laptop most of the time. I use Vivaldi as my daily driver because it has things like Tab Grouping, saving sessions to file, tiling tabs, a nickname system for bookmarks, etc. It's actually based on Chromium.
I use Vivaldi too, and I don't think I could go back to anything else 😂 their tab stacking is the best implementation I've seen, and the side menu thing with the notes and being able to see the files you have downloaded easily and the split screen, I love it all, I wish more people knew about it 😂
@@rosaliamiranda4808 everyone knows about it,vivaldi is cool but i don't like the design
Valvadi browser is pretty cool too! (it uses the chromium engine as well). You have more options to personalize the interface, including splitting many tabs in one single browser window at once (if you tried with chrome, you will have a ton of wasted space with the headers and it will be a pain to use windows default window manager to manage all of it)
@João M. nah its the security of those browsers thats a problem
@João M. Vivaldi is from the creators of opera. I use opera my favorite browser. But people like you crap on anything Chinese lol.
@@halachak8732 both have great security. U have found better security on opera then chrome or edge
@João M. yes and i use opera for i dont know how many years. love the browser. using OperaGX
How do whet your google bookmarks over to edge?
Does this apply to Chromebook OS?
I switched to Edge last year and I love it. Thanks for the tips too. I love your accent, do you mind if I ask what country you're from?
If you want to support an alternative browser on the basis of privacy Firefox is the one you should use. It is essential we keep an alternative non chromium based browser.
I guess tho firefox isn't the best for privacy since by default it has some telemetry which is why librewolf is better
Lemme try.
Is edge support for multi profile.?
If it is easy to use standard Chrome Drive functions like google forms, sheets, docs, then I would give it a try. But my organization uses google forms and sheets for almost everything we do, so it would have to be seemless. Can these functions be used in Edge?
Edge works great with the Microsoft Authenticator. Users might not want to migrate because of the saved passwords and favorites. Edge can load load passwords from G Chrome. The migration is easy. Great video, btw.
It is because they share the same codebase: Chromium
Yeah brave actually does the same thing interestingly enough
Never save passwords in your browser. Literally the dumbest thing you can do
Leila Gharani, thanks for the Edge review. I have enjoyed a few of your videos on Excel, One Note, and PowerPoint. Being a Mac user, Edge version for Mac is horrible. Our IT department at my company suggest not to use Edge on our Windows machines out of the many browsers we can use on our PCs (Chrome, Safari, and Firefox). When it comes to speed test, my preferred default browser, of course, Safari on the M1 Mac easily best Chrome and Edge. I understand optimization of hardware and OS plays a big factor. I also think the verdict is still out when it comes to Edge on privacy and security vulnerabilities. However, Edge is finally catching up to Chrome In the extension department, like other Microsoft products becoming too over-bloated with excellent features but rarely used. I think you were 100% correct; Chrome will continue to dominate. Keep up The very helpful and excellent thorough reviews.
Does edge work fine for macos?
Edge has a lot of great features but there is one detail I have that I have NOT been able to fix which is the scrolling, I am open to suggestions ( I have disable smooth scrolling and scrolling personality btw)
Just the ability to have vertical tabs is enough reason for me to switch to Edge. Thanks for that tip.
One of the most underrated channels on youtube!
Thank you!
hi Leila how to control all apps and my computer system in Edge
Some people doesn't understood that when Chrome take more RAM is not a bad think. If your computer need RAM, he will get that.
I usually use about 15-30 tabs so I need to have more RAM taken when i need all tab remain active. Especially if I had some video open , I want to easily switch between tabs and doesn't need to re-download videos and pages (stored in RAM).
Feature Multitasking seems wired to me. If you had many open programs (6-10) this will add another tile to the task switcher. But if you use only 2-3 programs and
Should have mentioned about the current pdf editor in edge!
Thank you so much. I started using it as it was a browser on my new laptop. It was a good experience. And now with information I am sure yo stick to Edge
Thanks a lot. I noticed that Edge needs a high speed internet connexion.
One thing I really like about the new Edge is that it doesn't lock up at times (an issue I see with the current Chrome 103).
I've been using edge since last year, loved it, never felt like downloading chrome.
Based on this video, I'm going to give edge a try.
How is it?
@@bazil4146 great, I switch to Edge and never go back to download chrome for a year and very happy with it
Subscribed. My good old HP AIO died a month ago, I was using firefox as the web browser. When I got my new Dell AIO with Win11, I switched to Edge as I felt it has matured into a great browser.
Not much of a Windows guy, so your articles are a great help me. Thanks a lot for that. Ok, I rather cut to the chase: 1. There is a documented study done few months ago for data mining behavior by Chrome, Edge and Duck Duck Go. They found out Edge is second to Duck Duck Go and Chrome being the lowest of the three. 2. Referring to another of your article about restart and power off (assuming warm kernel option chosen from Windows power options), in restart if the micro kernel needs to be flushed off only then related services/libraries will need to be killed/flushed. It is highly unlikely to flush the microkernel for unrelated services or libraries. Why bother flushing unaffected segment of memory?
Thank you for making this video. I might switch to edge too
Edge is my favourite browser, I particularly like the "Collections" feature and make extensive use of it. Edge is constantly improving and adding features at quite a rapid pace. Never could get use to Chrome, found Firefox better, but Edge is far superior.
Thanks for sharing!
last time i tried edge it ran worse than chrome after it's eaten up all your memory FROM THE VERY MOMENT I LOADED IT. and it was after the chromium change.
Agreed with Collections. Convinced me to stick with Edge.
I use Collectons a lot - Home and work.
This! I heavily use collections for research. Also, edge has never crashed despite so many tabs on. Will never go back to chrome
I would like to understand your thoughts on the alternative browsers that offer greater security than either of these two options. Thank you
I used to love Chromium Edge, but the major issue is that it gets slow for no reason on my computer. Every other browser I use runs fine, so I don't get why the windows official browser is the slowest on my PC.
Good video Leila. I ditched Chrome for the Brave browser. Great privacy and lightning fast.
I did the same for a time on one of my computers but eventually had a problem with UA-cam that I 'think' was due to Brave. So back to Chrome.
Yup...same here...
The day Edge popped up, I've been using it, and I don't plan to change back to Chrome anymore. It just works better for me. Also, Microsoft is adding new useful features in almost every update.
Very good information, appreciate and thanks.Madam, is there any tutorial in detail as to how to use Microsoft edge and also enable the extentions.
How does RAM usage compare....?
