Its odd that it is the same version as the dev version which I am using. Dev has been pretty stable for me and will stick with it unless it becomes buggy.

The current Dev build (79.0.309.nn) is being prepped for release as the Beta version, and the unreleased (as of yet) Stable version is usually identical to the current Beta version. The fact that Beta and Stable are the same version brings into question (in my mind) what is gained by downloading the unreleased Stable version, particularly since Microsoft does not appear to have released Stable for testing by Edge Insiders. I plan to wait until Microsoft releases the Stable version to Edge Insiders for testing.
- HotCakeXNov 01, 2019MVPI think when Edge insider stable will be released, it won't be for testing, it will be a stable proper browser for everyone to use.
it will however most likely be released to Windows 10 insider users as an embedded form replacing Edge classic Edge new Edge.
