it can run Extensions from Microsoft and you can install additional extension stores (like google) with just a click. (of course not all extensions will work, like 1password+app didn't but 1password x, did)
It takes a lot to make me get off of Safari. About the only time I do is when I must have Flash for streaming services and then I use Chrome's integrated flash support.
I guess if MS adds all of the proprietary features of Edge on Windows so that macOS users can run locked in Windows web apps that might be a highly attractive reason but it seems they're not going to be doing that.
I'm wondering if they're using integrated Keychain support? I guess if it's build on Chromium perhaps not. Frankly for me that's a non starter.
ah sorry can't answer that, the first thing I did was checking out 1password. I mostly replace 1password as the password manager for my browsers.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security
that specifies this restriction. Maybe I couldn't find the reference.
I'm pretty sure the Chrome folks removed it because they didn't think the Keychain was secure (at least from the readings I've done).
All macOS apps have full access to the Security framework in macOS including Keychain and keychain element management.
What's gonna be the advantage of using Edge over Chrome from a developer standpoint?
