Dev channel update to 82.0.446.0 is live

For me the biggest hole at the moment is the lack of History (and currently open tabs) syncing - especially syncing with the Android version. In fact I'm rather astonished that you released a first stable release still without that very fundamental feature. Yet you put all the effort onto collections syncing when the Android version doesn't even do collections. (It's all very ironic at the moment: desktop Edge does collections but Android Edge doesn't, while Android Firefox Preview does collections while desktop Firefox doesn't. Maybe you and Mozilla should look at syncing desktop Edge with Android Firefox and each give up the other platform.  )

The biggest irritation, that makes Edge feel really sloppy (both Dev and Canary) is that if I have a page open that is full width displayed (no horizontal scroll bar) but long, if I quickly scroll vertically - repeated two fingers flips up or down on my laptop touchpad - the page contents WOBBLE from side to side within the tab frame. It does it a bit when scrolling fast down and a LOT when scrolling fast up. Makes it feel like some shoddily made real world object with poor part size tolerances that wobbles and clatters when it should be solid.

There is zero chance of me using it until:

1 History (and open tabs) syncing between desktop and Android Edge.

2 You get rid of the scroll wobble on fast vertical scrolling, which just feels very disconcerting and like desktop Edge has been coded by amateurs.

3 Android Edge gains either (a) the ability to use the Dark Reader extension, or (b) the built in Settings>Themes>Dark>Darken website function that can be enabled (via  chrome:flags) in Android Google Chrome. (built in version preferable, but extension OK if it doesn't bog down performance). I've gotten too sensitive to all the acres of white background websites to use a browser that doesn't have an option to 'dark mode' the actual page contents (Android Chrome has the built in option, while Android Firefox can use the Dark Reader extension); and the importance of having desktop and phone browsers sync means the Android browser needs to be acceptable to consider using the desktop browser (and vice versa).

There are other things, but at the moment those are the top ones for me.

Actually, for me you are in a race with Mozilla at the moment. I'm waiting for the ability to darken websites (as described above), built in or able to use the Dark Reader extension, in both Android Edge and Firefox Preview Nightly (currently I use the extension in current Android Firefox, but that makes it clunky and current Android Firefox is due to be supplanted by Preview soon, or the built in function in Android Google Chrome). Whichever of you. Microsoft or Mozilla. does it first will likely get me using your desktop and Android browser for the foreseeable future.
