    Not, Edge on Linux it's not "good". To me, "good" is not only about speed or features, but also about privacy. And on that field MS Edge is just terrible.

    When you launch Edge, it makes http(s) requests to 20 different hosts and 29 DNS A queries, see https://f2.tchncs.de/media_attachments/files/105/067/463/281...

    This is one of the worst results of all browsers regarding privacy.
