Dev channel update to 91.0.864.1 is live
So frustrating. Stable channel has gone to 90, and the removal of the egregious Open/save-on-download-bar that wrecked the download manager extension I like to use, and all the alternatives, has removed the one thing that was making it unusable for me. I can actually use it for my normal browsing. Except ...
... except I have Dev and Canary installed so I know that when Stable goes to 91 in a few weeks it will become unusable to me again, as Dev and Canary are, from the loss of the great extended toolbar area UI for using (i.e. left and right clicking on) the 20 extension buttons I don't have room for in the toolbar, just the extensions button and its dropdown which, whatever else they may be good for, are hideous for quickly clicking on those 20 buttons - so cumbersome I just can't use that UI for that. All you had to do was ADD the extension button and dropdown for extension management, but make it so turning off the extensions button does not change the visibility-on-toolbar status of extensions (but DOES hide the extensions button), and leave the previous extended toolbar area as it was, with options for the user to choose to display one, the other or both. But no, you just ruined the usability for people like me who use a lot (if 30+ total counts as 'a lot') of extensions.
So there's no point me getting cosy with eminently usable 90 when hyou are just going to make it unusable for me with 91.

A usable desktop Edge 90, and sudden big progress (although not quite usable yet) with Android Edge, but killing it with the extension toolbar UI horror show in 91. SO frustrating. (And I realise that people who only use a couple, half a dozen, maybe 10 extensions probably don't realise what the problem is, but with 30 it's MASSIVE.)
- DeletedApr 22, 2021Hello. It seems that channel 90 ... has a Password Manager extension to check - if the password was revealed on the net! This is enabled by default! Of course, not everyone at the same time have this implementation, and many other edge features because it requires a specific working environment of these features and many users do not understand! I know this, of course, but people want to have this function immediately because i write about it in the MTC, I think it is impossible!
