Syncing tabs / Sending tabs to another device
There is just one reason why I'm not able to migrate from FF to Edge Chromium: Syncing tabs or sending tabs to another device is not yet implemented! Is it already on the roadmap?

A supplementary answer to your question, you can use the Share function in the Edge insider browser And the Your Phone app on your mobile phone to send tabs and links to your devices.
This way is different from browser syncing and can be used right now
These instructions are from Edge insider Version 79.0.301.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
Step 1, click on the Ellipsis menu on the top-right corner of your browser
Step 2 - select Your Phone app from the list
Step 3
Step 4
Let me know how it goes,
here is the official help regarding the Your Phone app

HotCakeXwhat about sending a tab from PC to tablet, does it work to? Edge on Android is able to send the tab to any device, Edge on PC seems to support sending to my phone only.

but as of now, it's still unavailable even in Canary channel- Michael_BuchnerJan 30, 2021Brass Contributor
HotCakeX Open tab sync is now available in Edge Stable but if you don't want to sync all open tabs but only want to send a tab from Win 10 device 1 to Win 10 device 2, it still won't work. You're just able to send an open tab/page to my smartphone.
