Forum Discussion
There should be a separate category Linux here

It is not a question division, but a matter for users on Linux a place to come. Have you seen many MS edge on Linux users coming here? Have a look at the Vivaldi forum. The devs even reply to queries, and people know who the dev responsible for given platform is.
Windows Edge has a stable release on Windows, MacOS, iOS and Android, but not on Linux. Only a dev release, so not many are even trying. To get people to try, you have to have a place for them to come. I am just suggesting. I am open to all OSs.

The matter is what is good for Windows OS platform is not always or at all good for Mac OS or Linux. What might be a solution for the Mac OS might be good for Linux and vice versa, for they are Unix based.
The other matter is this an Insider discussion, so there would be very few, if at all Windows Insiders in the Linux world.
Also, MS still can't get out a stable release of Edge for Linux, which is why this forum/discussion should specially invite them to test the browser. All other browsers based on Chromium have stable releases for Linux, and they did that immediately.
Just got a email from Vivaldi, (image below), already on every platform.
By the way, Edge web capture saves files in .jpeg, but they cannot be uploaded to this place.
