Microsoft Edge Tries to Win People Over with New Tools as If It’s Any Good

Desperate for Relevance: Edge and Other Browsers Add Fancy Tools

Oh great, Microsoft Edge and some other underdog browsers have added “powerful” tools to help you write emails and generate images. Because, you know, their ever-dwindling number of fans needed just that. Apparently, these tools are supposed to make you overlook the far superior Chrome, Firefox, and Safari browsers. Good luck with that!

Possible Implications: As If Anyone Cares

Let’s pretend for a moment that Microsoft Edge and its buddies’ new features might interest someone. If people are suckered in by these so-called “enhancements,” maybe this could bring about mediocre improvements in their online experience. They’d probably also be stuck with browsers trying too hard to be cool instead of enjoying the already awesome ones. But don’t worry, we’ll still be here to mock them mercilessly for their poor choices.

And as for you other browsers, don’t think for a second that these fancy add-ons will get you into the big leagues with Chrome or Firefox. Keep dreaming, and maybe someday you’ll be moderately relevant. For now, sit down and let the real browsers do their thing.
