Edge is equivalent to Chrome It supports all the same plugins. It's probably just secops picking the low hanging fruit dissuade you subverting network security. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Edge is built upon chromium permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] linearchaos@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) When I say that Edge is equivalent to Chrome, I don't mean that Edge is exactly Chrome It's not what I said and it's not what I meant. I mean that for all intents and purposes you can use edge for anything you want to use Chrome for. Major differentiation is that you're giving all of your data to Microsoft in lieu of Google. And you could look at all the other chromium base browsers and say yeah you could do the same thing with those but in this case we have a business user. There's businesses are probably already running Microsoft networks. They might very well already have Microsoft SSO. Edge is going to have all kinds of great tie-ins to active directory policy. So secops/it is going to try to force you to use Edge, instead of say Firefox with a barely have any control over or maybe brave where you're going to try TOR or IPFS and just basically be a stain on their HIDS board. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) Edge is equivalent to Chrome It supports all the same plugins.
