Top Feedback Summary for April 21
MissyQWould you please make Microsoft Edge available for install on Linux quicker? We Linux users are looking forward to see the colour fonts on the Edge Browser. Currently only Microsoft Edge supports all types of colour fonts. Firefox support for colour fonts exists but it is limited. So please develop Microsoft Edge for Linux faster!
From me, and many Linux users

David_H_1 If I could make it come faster, I would! Everyone is so absolutely excited for us to bring Edge to Linux. You will for sure see updates here once we have more information, though. Keep the enthusiasm up! We love seeing it. 😄
giovannigaspar I want to! Xbox is my console of choice. I worked over on that team for several years, so it's very near to my heart. Once I have information to share about that, I will work to ensure it's in this list (selfishly).
htcfreek We do have the full page experience for Edge right now at edge://favorites. I understand this isn't what you are asking about, though. Please submit this feedback through the browser. The feature owner, Candice, is very active in the feedback around favorites so understand that we're working to bring suggestions to you all. 🙂
MattBDev No info yet, but you will for sure see details here when they come in!
Davy49 Same as above, no info yet. However, for you both, I suggest installing Canary and keeping an eye there for when these features are implemented. It'll give you a good idea on when you might see those features roll up.
FedeDiLo Microsoft stopped supporting epub last year, and that support page links to the Store where you can install an app that supports reading epubs there. Continue to submit feedback for this request, though! The team does constantly evaluate feedback around these types of items.

Thanks for the response. yes store has lots of Epub reader and plus, people can convert their Epub books to PDF. nowadays most of the writers offer PDF version of their books too in addition to other formats like audio. because PDF is a lot more compatible and it's the standard document format for these things and looks the same on all devices.

MissyQ That's awesome! XBOX is like a mini PC for me. If I had the new Edge there, my life would be easier . Anyway, I am very excited to know this is a possibility! Looking forward for it 🙂
P.S: Thanks for the response too! Good to know we are being listened 😛
