Edge Reader Mode says the browser is Chrome
Has anyone else noticed that when a webpage is in reader mode and you click the button "Reader Mode" on the left side of the address bar next to the reload button it says "Chrome simplified this page to make it easier to read"? It should say Edge not Chrome. Why does it say Chrome? I'm using Edge Dev. 83.0.467.0.
Thanks for submitting feedback via Edge itself. We read all of those. I was about to log a bug on this because you're right! It's not good :-). But since you submitted feedback, I don't need to do that.
We have quite a number of tools that try to verify all of the strings in the product are correct. It's not at all clear to me how we missed this one. Which means, we probably missed more. If you see "Chrome" anywhere else, please submit additional feedback.
