How are you guys finding Microsoft Edge after the Creators Update?

from WinCustomize Forums

I'm liking it..........a lot. Quicker and more responsive than Chrome. Ublock Origin does a great job too knocking out all the pesky pop-ups. Seriously considering making it my default browser and getting rid of Chrome.

Edge has no setting for a minimum font size to be displayed on all web pages. Deal breaker for me. My eyes are not as sharp as they used to be.

There is a zoom control that you can use............and the opticians is just around the corner.

Yeah but you have to zoom each page. Chrome has a minimum font setting that makes all fonts on any webpage that size. So does Firefox.

After reading this thread, I decided to give Edge a second look. It seems ok, but as far as I can tell it's not noticeably faster than Chrome, and once I imported bookmarks, getting them to the bar at the top was a hassle.

It's not a bad browser, but I see no compelling reason to switch.

 Same here.  It might be a tiny bit perkier, but "meh".

I wouldn't mind trying it out if CFX would work with it but...it don't.

I heard a report of CFX working on a new Insider Build.  I've yet to test though.

Just discovered the CFX issue appears with the older cursors (apparently). For example, ms edge won't work with Lightsaber Pro (have to do the temporary deactivation) but will work with Nemesis FX.

This is the only exception I've found from the cursors I have, so far.
