Am I mistaken or is the overlay scrollbar the default now and its flag gone?

Drew1903 Actually, it appears that I was mistaken. The flag for the overlay scrollbars was removed from Chromium dev builds v78 and up. The reason the overlay scrollbar appears to be the default for you and I is simply that we had the flag set when we updated to the version where the flag is removed from edge://flags. However, the default behavior seems to be in fact to the old-school scrollbars, not the overlay scrollbars.

  That's odd, the new update should have done a better job cleaning the old flags..

  I am not quite sure that follows, exactly, since, I don't believe I ever had the overlay flag enabled, actually, I know I did not. And (now) it, the scroll bar, is not hiding in any of the 3 Channels.
