    Windows 10 usage continues to rise, but users say no to Edge browser


    I doubt you have to be on the board to figure this one out. Web companies look at market share of browsers, just like OS programs. Chrome and IE still own the lions share of the market, with Chrome growing quite a bit after Microsoft announced the demise of IE. To the point of many here, Chrome's advantage is being multi-platform. Personally I use Edge as much as possible. I find it fast and a better performer than Chrome. Additionally, for my 2n1, I like the fact it works well in touch mode.
    That said, nothing is more maddening than a website that won't work with Edge. However, as a developer I understand cost. If you have a legacy site that works well with Chrome and IE there is no financial reason to change it to be Edge compliant, at least not until your next planned site upgrade. So I think over time sites will all work with Edge, but it isn't going to be a priority anytime soon.
