- Why would you like an ongoing sync between the two? What problem would it solve for you? Microsoft Edge on Android isn't as good as Chrome, since it doesn't support certain features (like WebAuthn). Edge also doesn't have a Linux version (yet)
- Do you expect to leverage this ongoing sync only for a short period of time (for instance during initial assessment of Microsoft Edge) or for long period (continue to use multiple browsers)? I want to use this for a long period.
- How would the absence of this ability change your perspective on Microsoft Edge adoption? I have the issue that Chrome is better on Android, but I can't sync Microsoft Edge with Chrome, so I will need to use chrome.
- Would the creation of a Chrome extension fulfil your requirement? No, because I need it on the phone, and you should also be able to send links to your other devices.
