Engadget:

As promised, Microsoft is officially releasing its Chromium-based Edge browser today, which is powered by the same engine that’s behind Google Chrome. Windows and Mac users can download and install the update manually, and automatic updates will start rolling out for Windows users next week.

I’ve been using the new Edge browser since last April, and while I’m also disappointed to see Microsoft cede more control of the web to Google, I can’t deny that it’s a far better experience than before. The revamped browser is fast and easy to use; I rarely run into compatibility issues with websites (since everyone tends to build for Chrome); and I found its privacy settings to be a big step forward for average consumers.

I’m going to try using it for the next week and see if I like it. How about you?
