Moved from Edge to Firefox and back to Edge a few days later. FF "works" but I prefer the less clicks requiring Edge UI. The faster bookmarking, the better vertical tabs (though you can kind of get it to work with verticalFox css). Edge loads faster and handling drag and drop of tabs and better website translation. FF also had performance issues on some websites. Another is, Edge bookmark icon remembers my click, while FF UI always resets.
I use a combination of desktop and android and FF android really isn't good with it's UI, it would require many more clicks to save 10 bookmarks inside my desktop folders and much longer to sync them. While on Edge it was two touch and instant sync.
I'd say FF is fine for 99% if the people but I was looking for something else. I did this just a few days ago.
You are literally the first person I have ever seen that prefers edge over any other browser. I knew there were some of you out there somewhere... Thanks for sharing your experience.
There are dozens of us!
for vertical tabs give a try to sidebery, but use the latest beta from GitHub releases.
Yeah I used that. It was okay. I prefer the way how I can drag and drop the tabs in Edge. Sidebery didn't seam to habe that option. Also when you were on bookmarks you couldn't open a folder with one click (Middle mouse button). It also didn't automatically switch back to tabs from bookmarks when opening more than an individual bookmark. Saving bookmarks also didn't remember the folder. It's tiny stuff that made me go back to Edge.
