Feature Request: native text recovery for forms/text boxes (Lazarus, Typio, Textarea Cache)
ikjadoon This right here, is the reason why I still insist on using the unpacked Lazarus Form Recovery extension in Edge despite is no longer being on the Chrome web store. Every 2 weeks, I get reminded by Edge to disable it, but I just keep postponing the reminder 'cause I simply can't use my browser in peace without it. Countless times, even when typing this post on this very Microsoft Tech Community page, there's been glitches on websites that end up requiring me to refresh the page and risk losing everything I've typed. Fortunately, thanks to Lazarus, I don't worry about such situations anymore, as recovering whatever I've typed is just 2 clicks away.
Of all the other features Microsoft is implementing in Edge, this will be the most useful and endlessly live-saving of them all. Just don't get all stupidly greedy and nosy requiring it to be tied to some skynet account to function. That'll just be a massive red flag of Microsoft disguising a key logger as a feature of Edge.
