Looking forward to this. Anyplace we can look at release targets and planned features? Looking forward to having dark mode back.

+1 for the dark mode. If it could be linked with the Windows dark theme it would be perfect! :-)

        OFC! And just in case you weren't aware you can also search for overlay and get overlay scrollbars. A feature I love so very much.

      Hi Drew1903.
      The way I found to have a dark theme is:
      - in edge://flags , toggle the 'Microsoft Edge theme' to change the color of the tabs, menus...
      - install the extension 'dark theme for Chrome' to darken web pages.
      If that can help you.

        Done & thanks.  There's lots that is not intuitive & takes more 'effort' (to do or find) than w/ the current Edge. Maybe, not accustomed to it, merely unfamiliar ground.  I mean, only, bit a bit of use since all of yesterday LOL.  Though, we know there's a lot more building to be done & heaps of "Coming Soon" things.

        Cheers,
        Drew
