Well, someone unleashed the fanbois. I guess this is to be expected on an MS-centric site.

SSO is a Bad Idea from both security and privacy standpoints. I absolutely do not want my software “FIDO Alliance” compliant.

My laptop also doesn’t need pen support, voice support, touch, or any other I/O other than keyboard and mouse/trackpad inputs and audio and visual outputs. I, for one, detest Cortana and have no use for it. Same, incidentally, goes for half the forced garbage that’s in W10. Thankfully, a lot of it simply won’t run with the less-than-worthless UAC disabled.

Is Edge superior to all those browsers. Some, surely, but mostly those are matters of subjectivity. Frankly, while Mozilla’s attempt at agile development – in an effort to seem as ‘relevant’ as Chrome – has meant Mozilla’s leadership has had their collective heads up each other’s arses, the browser remains pretty darned good. I agree Edge is better than 11 and Chrome (heck, the only browser in recent history that is worse than Chrome IMO is IE5), I don’t believe it is superior to Opera nor Firefox.

The conjecture unloaded concerning Edge’s superiority is just that: conjecture. For now, I’ll stick to Firefox and it’s absurdity. At least I can lock it down.

Agreed, Jesse. The comment is both ignorant and presumptuous from someone who questionably knows the difference between IE & Edge.

Edge has faster performance than both Chrome and Firefox, rendering HTML5 in particular. Meanwhile IE, while immensely compatible is still the slowest of all 4 browsers.

Edge is Fido Alliance compliant, and in tandem with Windows Hello and Passport will lead the way to single sign on across all Internet sites from initial workstation login. This is one area where Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Microsoft all agree.

Edge is integrated with all new forms of I/O that Windows 10 presents. Pen, Cortana/Voice, Touch, & even some other means of interaction. Chrome, IE, and Firefox are not.

Edge has a massive, secure-yet-open extension model similar to that of Chrome or Firefox but with a lot more safeguards to protect users from illicit plug ins. You’ll not only see AdBlock and Grease Monkey but also addins for SAP and other business applications.

As for the whining about compatibility… that’s the entire reason… and the ONLY reason IE11 ships with Windows 10. Otherwise its the exact opposite of what the author says: Outside of legacy standards compatibility, Edge is a superior browser to IE, Chrome, & Firefox.

Some of the sites I use, for instance http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/ if I try to load in Edge it says “This website uses technology that works best in Internet Explorer”….
