Let's play a game.....

One is Google Chrome. The other is a Microsoft Browser.

Choose Wisely.

    I think lol

    @Plasticnova Yeah the only way to tell is chrome uses Material icons and Edge uses Segoe UI.

    Other than that, they are practically identical.

    @AlgoRythm That's no wonder because Edge is Chromium based now.

    @Fast-Nop I'm talking about the UI, not how the page renders. There is no practical difference between how an EdgeHTML, Webkit, or Gecko page renders.

    But Chrome and Firefox have distinct UIs. Chrome and NeoEdge don't

    Can i choose neither?

    @tekashi That's what I do

    I choose Lynx.

    @AlgoRythm the main giveaway was the round vs rectangular address bar and the bookmark.

    Outside of that:

    @AlgoRythm I was talking about the UI too. Of course Chrome and FF have different UIs because they're completely different codebases.

    Edge basically IS Chrome, minus a lot of Google stuff that MS ripped out. Given that it IS Chrome, it's no wonder that it LOOKS like Chrome, right?

    @Fast-Nop While I see how that makes sense, I don't think it's a given. I honestly wouldn't expect MS to just change the icons. That's why I'm so surprised that you're right.

    Given you're logged in on the right. I'm going to say Edge on the left 😁

    @AlgoRythm Yeah either they're lazy, or they bet that more users will switch if everything looks familiar. Given how their own efforts went with IE and their non-Chromium Edge, it's probably better if they don't try to be creative.

    @Fast-Nop Then why not just strike a deal with Google and ship windows with Chrome?
  • 5
    Left is edge.
    Both are chromium.
    MS lost the war and surrendered.

    Life just got easier for web devs!!!!!

    @AlgoRythm Because Chrome talks back to Google. It's not that MS has discovered users' privacy, but they certainly don't want to hand over the data to another company.

    Everyone has a big user data pool these days. Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Ebay, Paypal, Twitter, Instagram, even Tesla. Only MS does not, and that's because their usual strategy of "wait, then copy" has failed. Mainly because they were unable to leverage their desktop monopoly (especially when Win Phone failed), and that's the ONLY trick MS really knows.

    But it does not make any sense to have the desktop monopoly and then hand over the data fruits to Google.

    Left edge. Look at the menu

    @Fast-Nop chromium also calls home every couple of minutes. Albeit with less data and a little bit less invasion of privacy. But it's still calling nonetheless.

    This also means that Electron apps do this I guess? Quite the irony.

    Left Edge, right Chrome. Why? Because left isn't signing in and the right is signed in, haha!

    Chrome is rounded, Edge is sharp.

    @Fast-Nop they also have azure and minecraft and office and a few other billion dollar revenue streams ;)

    The realized that the browsers in it self was not going to generate enough money so why spend huge amounts trying to keep up.

    @C0D4 sadly, no.
    Edge did it's job pretty good. Not good, but pretty good. The problem is how IE11 still persists in enterprise..

    I am using the edge chromium for last 4 month. It's pretty good in term of performance and low ram usages. They are bugs and hopefully it's gets fixed.

    The reload button gave it away. Right is chrome for sure.

    @C0D4 Yay a browser monopoly in the making lead by one of the biggest mass surveillance companies in the world!

    @linuxxx almost.
    Chromium is the open source project under G Chrome

    But yes a browser monopoly has begun, now to wait and see what Firefox and Safari do.
