This feels weird to say.... I really think Microsoft should've stuck with trident / edgehtml.

    Why? Because you liked the greater browser diversity or because you think it made a better browser?

    Diversity. MS had made great strides with EdgeHTML, but it was still pretty bad

    But at least opening the browser didn't take all my ram.

    And also at the very least you had another option. Which, in my opinion, wasn't that bad, at least it could've been if they just gave up on Bing and MSN.

    It was actually one of the most W3C compliant browsers there is, more so than chromium based ones. Unfortunately google’s near monopoly has made websites focus on working in chrome, not on standards.

    As a web developer, EdgeHTML was the source of so many bugs, including a few that were regressions, and it didn't seem like Microsoft dedicated enough resources to the Edge project.
