From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'll say this, I never used edge before, but it's comparable with a bunch of my work sites so I was kind of forced into using it. It's actually pretty great. Better overall than stock chrome, though I prefer brave or Firefox for non work related stuff.
Once I started using Edge, I was surprised by how well it worked.
If your org uses any of the Microsoft suite apps Edge is just better. It sucks that Microsoft is allowed to do this
It's basically the same thing google did with chrome in the beginning of Google docs. I haven't noticed much difference between chrome and edge, but I rarely use them for the same things l.
I have to use edge in some of my work environments, my only complaint is the locked in ecosystem. As a browser it seems fine for now...
