Microsoft recently started rolling out a new Chromium-based Edge browser to its users. The new Edge web browser supports all versions of Windows and macOS and it will replace the legacy version of Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 personal computers. Following this massive change both Google and Mozilla sent cakes to Microsoft.
