Probably a godsend if you're a web dev. No more rebooting or running a second PC/VM for compatibility checking.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

MS Edge Has a superior PDF editor with very good workflow for textboxes, pen input support. I use it just for editing/annotating PDFs.
I collect Microsoft points so Edge gives bonus every day & integrates with bing. It's also good for reading pdfs and epubs cause it has nice tts which does not sound like a retarded robot played through a tin can like the linux native one.
I use edge on linux every now and then. I keep two browsers to separate work and personal stuff and I use edge as my secondary browser (for personal stuff on the work OS, for work stuff on the personal OS). My main browser is Vivaldi.
My reasoning is that it has very good tab management features and I'd still rather use a Microsoft browser than an Opera browser. With just those two requirements there's not much else to use out there.
I hate Microsoft but I have to agree it has some really nice products. Personally for me, I just don't like edge because it's somewhat bloat. I mean, look, if you have a high powered machine, you will probably love it. But yeah, I like firefox best, I can't imagine leaving it. Just too addicted to the features, can't live without them.
