Microsoft websites detects Edge browser as Chrome hahaaha
Seriously? Please fix........
That store was stupid but I don't think Edge users should hide behind Chrome's user agent. knowing which browser you are using is nothing compared to all the data websites and trackers can get from visitors. (e.g your time zone, IP address, which website you came from, installed fonts, OS and version etc)
in this case, Microsoft's website apparently hasn't added support for the new Edge user agent yet.

It's not hiding, it preventing Google to do add "bug" to it's concurrent, even Vivaldi now stop to add their user-agent since on google services "bugs" occur only when the user-agent is different than Chrome.
In my case i don't care i don't use Google (and i even a blocklist to block all Google services (except ajax api used by too many dev to just "block" it).
For mobile i'm on Apple so Google i really don't care but some other user of Edge if they receive a bug from Google they will say it's because of Edge "because on Google chrome it work".

- One example from the past, Google Earth blocked on Edge, because the browser was too old.
Browser who use the very same chromium it was a "BUG".
If Google have done it one, nothing prevent them from redo something like that - I don't understand what you mean by "adding bug to its concurrent"
