Another metrics vendor weighs in with data, shows Edge run by just 12% of Windows 10 users in the U.S.

 

Microsoft's new Edge browser has been largely ignored by U.S. users of Windows 10, an online measurement company said Monday.

Instead, Google's Chrome has shanghaied Windows 10's top browser spot.

Although Edge -- the default browser bundled with Windows 10 -- got a temporary boost when the operating system launched in late July, its share of all browsers on the OS quickly slipped from an early peak of about 16% to its current 12%.

According to San Francisco-based Quantcast, Chrome is the dominant browser on Windows 10 in the U.S., with a share slightly north of 70%.

Oh now that is pretty bad.  For Edge to have 'peaked' at 16% is pretty low..l given that we all used it most likely to download our Chrome and Firefox LOL.

 

I do not like Edge much at all.  The lack of settings/customization is just a bit too much for me, though that is exactly what Microsoft aimed for in order to keep it more secure and less prone to hijacking add-ons.  IE was too much of a good thing (too open and no security) but Edge is a bit too little.  Or perhaps again too much of a good thing in terms of too much security.

 

Either way... I find it annoying to use.
I also won't use Microsoft Edge... it's just not all there for me to even think about using it.

 Microsoft Edge is a new browser, and while I tend to be lenient when it comes to new browsers and the features that they may be missing, I think it is fair to hold browser's by multi-billion Dollar companies to higher standards than browsers created by smaller companies.
