On the other hand, I'm surprised to see that on MacOS Edge properly shows the search/URL bar in full screen if I move the cursor to the top of the screen or push Command-L, something Chrome still can't do without enabling "Always Show Toolbar in Full Screen", which I don't want. This alone, plus Edge being compatible with all Chrome extensions, might cause me to switch.

Hmm. This annoyed me about chrome too. As well as the constant default nags and the battery hit on macOS.

I like safari, always have done. But for those sites that are ~~IE6~~ Chrome debugged only I think I’ll start dropping into Edge instead of Chrome.
