How come most Windows 10 users are still using Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Safari?

Heck, some are still even sticking to Internet Explorer.

Those listed aren't the only browser on this planet.
For much more power user I will stick to something else, but that doesn't mean my option is bloated with apps and plugins like those you mentioned. biggrin.gif

Although I still keep Opera for the sake of browsing blocked sites by just using the turbo function as proxy... whistling.gif
I could setup proxy on my main browser but... I just lazy to navigate to the menu to on/off it. Click the Opera icon on taskbar is way faster.

Edge is too simple for now. Just one biggest problem, for me at least, is the lack of data sync across multiple devices, or just use the cloud sync feature as backup.
I think that should be a planned function for later update. But even if it does have the function later, it still a problem because... Edge won't available on Android / iOS platform as far as I know.
Tough, I seriously don't like their start page design, I don't need news and computer to help me organize my links. And extra ONCE-click to access the "usual stuff" is annoying.
Just one click may not sounds significant for some, but if you sit in front of your PC whole day long... You just want to get your task done the quickest way possible instead of bad UI design that makes you taking a longer route.
