Microsoft Edge is actually good

I've tried so many browsers in the past on Windows, Mac and Linux and I realized that none of them fit 100% my needs and taste. On top that, I'm still not so sure if I should give it a try on less-known browsers because you never know where they send data and what do they do with it.

However, 3 out of 4 must-have for my browser are met by edge (in order):

1. uBlock origin

2. Read aloud with proper voice

3. Translate websites that don't suck (more or less)

3. Vertical tabs (broken in full screen on Mac, but I can live with it.)

However, Firefox is a close second with the exception of point 2. The problem with Firefox is the death by thousand cuts I get, specially with the picture-in-picture feature, which works some of the time at random and some other small details.

We'll need to see how Microsoft manages the manifest V3 change when it happens to Chrome. I know the likes of the Orion browser has modified WebKit to allow current FireFox and Chrome Extensions to run in it. I hope Microsoft and other Chrome derivatives do the like.

I dunno, to me Edge feels just like Chrome with an addition of a bunch of Microsoft crap that I will never use, which makes sense because that's exactly what it is. I stopped using Chrome around 2016 and since that time I only use Safari on Mac and Firefox on Windows.
