There are a few things with touch input:
- On YouTube subscriptions and recommended pages tap&hold on the video doesn't produce the context menu to open it in a new tab but instead starts the video.
- The text selection ui/ux is different from the rest of the OS. That means in all of Windows one would tap or doubletap the text to select it, yet in Edge one has to tap&hold. That messes up the muscle memory and I still try to tap or double tap in edge and then in, say, Twitter I try to ?tap&hold...
- Tap&hold for text selection in edge often doesn't open the scroll thingies to select more text and the copy button, someone has to use touch keyboard shortcuts
- Touch keyboard shortcuts have a huge lag between pressing ctrl and c/v/a to produce the actual shortcut command. Instead, if you don't wait like 10 seconds, it just produces the letter.
- Fast and frequent touch input (tapping many time fast in a small area) freezes the rest of touch input on that tab or on all open tabs and one has to restart the browser for it to work again
