If you want a beta or dev build you can head over to the Microsoft Edge Insiders website to download a copy instead. A hard lesson for the future that most people still haven't learned.If you don’t have Microsoft Edge Dev or Beta installed you can download the official stable release from the official Microsoft Edge website for Ubuntu (and related distros) or Fedora (and related distros): In the computing world #1 is certainly not the best, and hasn't been for a long long time. Gnome's Epiphany browser which could become a good alternative is stalled again, mainly over a lack of developer time/assets.Īs we go about our computing days, whether at home or at work, as Linux Lite users we should really consider what a team of developers of Jerry's qualities could do for the future Linux world. At the same time Mozilla Firefox is said to be struggling for funding for development, and that does not bode well for future browser implementations in Linux. If MS is truly interested in developing a good browser for Linux desktop systems they need some Linux people who understand the superior security features of a Linux desktop and who don't think like Windows developers.Ĭurrently MS seems clearly at war with google refusing to implement browser logins from google accounts on Chromium based Edge, and they seem to now be, or hope to become the primary developers of the Chromium code base.


If you want to do things quickly and cleanly from your Linux system Firefox is still substantially superior in flexibility and personal security. Another issue I have always had with Chromium is the use of flags which are just messy code to handle messy code. I have never been a fan of Chrome or Chromium and I still remain disenchanted with browsers that don't easily run Desktop BASH scripts and posix function scripts from a link. Integration and updating has continued to be smooth certainly a bit to do with Jerry's work ethic. I haven't posted for while about MS Edge on Linux Lite 5.x but all has been well so far up to version 91.xx.
