Bounties for Edge? Isn't it less than 5% in browser market share?

I like the fact they're offering a bounty program, I'm just surprised Edge was included I guess.

Edge is also behind webviews in UWP apps, also WWAHost [0] apps and Store-delivered PWAs [1] will run in Edge

Edge is Microsoft's primary browser. One of the selling points of a browser is security. From their perspective it makes total sense to make sure it's secure.

Edge is the recommended primary web browser of Windows going forward... so yeah, it kinda makes sense for them to include it.

If Edge would be a more responsive on tab-switching and would have devtools on par with Chrome I would use it and I guess a lot of others would too. It's going to the right direction.
