What this probably shows is, that Edge makes a difference between search engines or websites and how it handles them, which it shouldn't. They should instead be rendered like any other website. There is a chance, that it is a mere coincidence, that it happens on the Google search engine website, but if that is what anyone argues in favor of, I would like to see a technical explanation of what Google does, which no one else does, to justify Edge crashing.

This happened to me tonight, but by this morning it was fixed. I had to go back to Firefox for a few hours; I'm still shaking. I'm considering legal action against Microsoft.

pretty disappointed to see such vapid comments on HN. At least put in some good argument for calling millions of people as idiots. One liner insults helped no discourse ever.

Why? I really enjoy the new edge chromium. It feels very smooth, is very fast and I have had no major problems.

I've tried chrome, but do not like where they are heading (removing AdBlock functionality, no privacy)

I've tried Firefox, but after years of chromium based browsers, it just felt off. No hard reason, I just didn't like it.

I tried numerous small browsers like Vivaldi and Brave, but they were not polished enough and started selling ads within my browser.

Edge does everything I want, supports Chrome plugins, feels modern.

Or anyone who expects the default browser to just work
