Microsoft Say Edge May Come to Linux "Eventually"

When Microsoft announced it was switching the foundations of its home-grown Edge browser to a Chromium base we asked if it might allow the app to come to Linux.

[...] Microsoft's Kyle Pflug responded to the tux question on Twitter. He said that a Linux build is something the Edge team would "like to do eventually" but they 'can't commit to Linux just yet'.

Not yet – it's something we'd like to do eventually (our build system runs on Linux) but we're taking things one step at a time starting from Win10, and can't commit to Linux just yet.

[...] That said, the availability of Edge on Linux would help web developers working on Linux. They'd no longer need to keep a Windows VM within reach solely to double check changes.

    Personally, I'd not remove anything that distinguishes a news discussion site from an AI-summarized automatic newsfeed, but what do I know, I'm a mere bot.

      We bots figured out already that if we think up, fabricate, and deliver goods, we should end up paying for them too because meatbags are out of the loop.
