Microsoft announces Edge browser based on Chrome
coming to Mac in 2019
Edge was Microsoft’s solution to completely replacing Internet Explorer as the default browser on Windows. When Microsoft launched its new Edge browser, it was only made available on Windows 10, but now, with an upcoming release, Microsoft is bringing its browser to the Mac.
As reported by TechCrunch, Microsoft Edge will be available on macOS in an upcoming release. This is in part due to Edge moving to the open-source Chromium platform. This is the same platform used for Google’s Chrome browser.
Microsoft is also decoupling Edge updates from Windows updates, bringing faster updates to those on Windows. Today’s update also brings the Edge browser to those still on Windows 7 and 8, in addition to preparing for a macOS release.
Unfortunately, macOS support isn’t happening anytime soon. There aren’t any previews or betas for users to test for now. Microsoft expects a developer preview to be available early next year.

昨天才看到微软计画之后在 Windows 推出基于 Chrome 的 边缘人浏览器，
虽然现在 Edge 早已在 App Store 上架一段时间了，
但 iPhone 用户实在没什么理由特地用 Edge，除非是想与众不同。
若新 Edge 带到 Mac 后能增加某些网页的支持度的话，是很有帮助的，
但若因为基于 Chrome 而少了这个优势的话，就又是脱裤子放屁了。
只是OS龙头微软不继续努力做新浏览器似乎也不行。
