New Edge Browser
 
I have just moved to Chromium Edge.

Certainly a vast improvement, well worth changing.

It seems ok although i use Vivaldi, i can't see a reason why someone would use Google Chrome these days, i guess they don't know better.

I still can't use Edge on Android it is missing a proper speed dial.

I have edge at work but don't use it as I need the bookmarks side bar.

So use trusty Internet Explorer

You should give Vivaldi a go that has a bookmarks sidebar.

Settings->General->Show the Favourites Bar


Bring up the favourites sidebar and there is a "pin this pane" icon at the top right.

It's Internet Explorer users which are holding the internet back, and causing Web Developers like myself headaches, due to the outdated and pure crappyness that it is.

I believe it has another 2-3 years of support before it gets killed off!

Microsoft doesn't seem to think so.

Internet Explorer is a component of the Windows operating system and the most current version will continue to follow the specific support lifecycle policy for the operating system on which it is installed. Internet Explorer 11 will be supported for the life of Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10.

The life of Windows 10, i thought Windows 10 was the last version of Windows.

Trying to find where i saw the end of life date now.

It's ridiculous to keep it running that long on Windows 10, Windows 7 support ended in Feb 2020.
