By Microsoft Edge TeamBeginning with EdgeHTML 15.14986, Microsoft Edge supports Brotli as an HTTP content-encoding method. This change will be released to stable builds with the Windows 10 Creator’s Update early next year, but you can preview it now via the Windows Insider Program. With this release, Brotli will be broadly interoperable across browsers, with support in the latest versions of Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and Chrome.

Hi Daniel, thanks for that...interesting to say the least.
 
And one to look out for in terms of up comings version...there seems to be a lot of focus on Edge at the moment...which is a good thing IMHO.
