OK, so you basically just said:

1 We are not giving a choice.

2 The only option is going to be behaviour suited to people using it on touch screens.

Seriously? Just a middle finger presented to all the people using it on desktops and non-touch-screen laptops. That is what your (team, not you personally) decision represents.

Having an OPTION of two behaviours, one for touch screens, one for non-touch-screen laptops and desktops would be a cool selling point (especially if there was a degree of auto-switching as to whether it is being use on a touchscreen device or in touchscreen mode on a device able to be used either way).

But what you just said says to me Microsoft no longer cares about the non-touchscreen market.

I have a touchscreen PHONE (which would use the Android Edge) and a NON-touchscreen laptop. Fine, I get the message. That really makes my day, along with the dark mode changes in yesterday's Canary I HATE, have made it unusable for me, and which aren't just options that let me keep the old theme if I want.

Please thank the UI design team for at least having given me an excellent browser dark mode before now taking it away that's let me redesign Firefox's dark mode to match through userChrome.css, making it the best Firefox has ever looked to me. Until this Edge dark theme change and my changing Firefox to match what Edge's was, on the theme/UI front I had it scored Edge 1 Firefox 0. Now you've wrecked Edge's dark theme but I've got Firefox's like Edge's was it's now Edge 0 Firefox 1.
