Microsoft Edge finally lands on Linux in October
The revamped version of Microsoft Edge is scheduled to launch on Linux in October, so it's not much to wait now, at least for the initial test build. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella revealed that the preview version of Edge for Linux will be released next month and users will be able to grab the browser from the Edge Insider website or via the native package installer for their particular Linux distribution. In his keynote speech at the company's Microsoft Ignite event, Nadella confirmed that Edge is coming to Linux soon, but provided some additional details. How will the browser be implemented on Linux? Exactly the same as on Windows and macOS, so you can expect to get all the same features, except for the Windows-specific bells and whistles (like Internet Explorer mode). We've known for some time that Edge is coming to Linux, and Microsoft confirmed that was the case almost a year ago at the last Ignite conference. So it took a while for the app to arrive.

Do you stand out from the competition?

Edge received a warm welcome on Windows 10, at least from people who adopted the improved Chromium-based web browser, and there's no denying that it's a huge step up from the original Windows 10-only version. It will certainly be good for Linux users to form an opinion on Edge, and obviously there will be more users for Microsoft, although in this search, the dangerous territory that the software giant has trodden on with Windows 10 grows. too difficult to connect the browser to services like OneDrive and even to the operating system itself. With the preview coming soon, we hope that if there aren't too many issues, we can expect the release version on Linux soon after.
