So, I can't figure out how to start a new discussion.
With the latest release (I am using 78.0.268.3), when I load or refresh a page, the loading symbol will load on top of the favicon which is a little annoying...
In previous versions, the favicon would be replaced with the loading icon.
While I don't mind having the loading icon as well as the page favicon, I do mind having it overlapping.
How about pushing it more towards the left, so it will look something like this;
Loading Icon > Page Favicon > Page Title, instead of now where Loading Icon is Together with the Favicon

So about the loading icon, what you're seeing is the new loading animation that Edge insider is using, it's also happening in Google chrome canary.
previous on Edge insider I could turn it off and on using a flag called "new tab loading animation" or something like that, but it's gone now so I assume they are choosing this new animation to replace the old one.
I agree with you though, there was better ways to animate that. I hope they at least improve it 😕
Have you done any tests on how much extra battery this consumes?
I would like a disable animations setting.
And once again. Do not introduce new stuff until you have completed the important things. IE migrate every function from Edge classic - you still haven't fixed the broken favorites icon for example - not to mention the rest of the favorites menu
- Battery consumption for that little short animation that is only few pixels long??
it's not a new animation, there was always an animation, this is just a different one that replaced the old one.
Microsoft didn't create it, Google did in the Chromium and now both Edge insider and Google Chrome use this animation by default.
