Improve font rendering to be on par with Firefox or at least original Edge
Deleted
The discussion of blurry fonts in Chromium based Edge has apparently been going on for over 6 months. WHEN will MS do something about it?
I had been avoiding the new Edge as long as possible -then the Windows update on 21 June installed it without asking. Now I'm struggling to read webpages (and the mic is muted each and every day when I join a TEAMS meeting, until I run the device manager sounds Troubleshooter. I cannot even fix it directly from device manager but have to let Troubleshooter reactivate the mic). I have a week and a half of standards conference meetings and the performance of the MS products is abysmal right now.
Given that the new Edge was forced upon users, I have not seen such a poor roll out from MS since Windows ME. Please poke someone to FIX this. I don't want to switch browsers but this is untenable.

I agree completely, and the name of this discussion thread says it all...it should be on par with Firefox or at least the original Edge. This greatly impacts most people I know (I provide computer support to them), because they are older and don't see that well. I'm 47 and have a hard time seeing thin fonts, or low-contrast faint-colored text, BUT...I've had difficulty reading in Chrome for many years, not just now that I'm older.
The simple key to this is: if Firefox can have sharp, dark-colored text in its menus/toolbars, etc., then the new Edge can too.
It's hard to believe that MS developers did nothing about improving the font rendering. I am speechless!
