Lock some feature
- Jul 13, 2019You are absolutely right there...
Not all changes are going to be committed back to the Chromium project. While the common things which help improve all the Chromium browsers would be committed back, like scrolling, accessibility, Touch support etc, the MSFT specific services like Cortana, SmartScreen etc, are locked down to Edge code itself...

Rohit Yadav - Right. Cortana, SmartScree, and other Microsoft are locked down to Edge. Just like Google's browser has specifics lock down too Chrome. Google and Microsoft are sharing the same open source prime (Chromium) but each taking it in their own direction. Chrome doesn't look a whole lot different than Chromium in appearance. However Microsoft is doing a stellar job in making their browser look balanced, clean, and easy to use. Microsoft could of simply cloned Chromium into the new Edge and threw in in a few Microsoft tabs and called it day but they didn't instead building a really nice user cleaner and organized browser. I've seen some posts of people asking why this or that isn't or hasn't yet been added yet it could be months or longer before certain new things are added. Google Chrome has been out since 2008 and they're still adding things to this day using the same (Canary, Dev, Beta, Stable line of chain) user informer format Microsoft is now using for their new version
