The failure of Microsoft's Edge to attract users of the new Windows 10 operating system has contributed to the company's overall decline in browser share, analysis of recently-published data shows. Link Me and my whole family likes IE better than Edge anyways.

IE, Edge and Mozilla can all go in a corner and die with their cousin Flash player.

Edge is a decent browser but I don't feel like changing over to it.

If they would cut out all the monitoring its customers, I am sure more people would use it.

why should they, google, firefox, and opera report your every click back to home, why can't Microsoft? Are you afraid Microsoft will see what you look at online but google doesn't bother you?

Hope you're signed up for Bing Rewards. I like Bing too, they need to add a shopping tab like google has.

I feel it's an over saturated market. What does "edge" have over any other browser, aside from working in tandem with Windows 10 in data collecting? Sure Google and firefox may collect data but it's easy to turn that off or use another means to protect yourself. To me, Windows 10 is the candy rape van and "Edge" is the creepy driver.
Within itself, I understand wanting to make a profit and the marketing behind Windows 10/edge whatever, I just think they have a real crappy way of doing it. In my opinion, the damage is done and it would take just a little short of an act of God for me to trust and get on board with Microsuck.

I haven't used edge so I cannot comment however it would be tough to pull me away from chrome on windows.

Firefox 44.0 with Flash disabled by default works just fine.

I think they are all scumbags.
Is Brave available for users yet?

All the articles showing Microsoft's decline for their new "Windows 10" just shows the statistics of their repeating pattern of failed operating systems.

We had to make edge inoperable on the few win 10 machines at work. We have seen so many bugs. My favorite is anytime anyone prints from edge it crashes the spooler on the print server and shuts down printing for half the organization.
