After years of Microsoft-built web browsers being a punchline, Edge has turned things around thanks to Google. I never thought I d see the day, but the new Edge has a number of enthusiasts switching away from Google Chrome.
Since they share the same Chromium base, the two browsers are now extremely similar, so switching is pretty easy most of the basic functionality is the same, and you can even install the same extensions. However, Edge tends to perform a bit better than Chrome not only in web browsing benchmarks, but in hardware usage.
While Chrome has become notorious for gobbling up RAM and other resources, Edge seems to be slimmer and more efficient. (Well, as much as it can be after all, you probably still live in your browser, and the more tabs and extensions you need, the more power it ll require).
