Please add to the list Collections syncing
And keep Microsoft Edge Google-free
I don't see why adding OneNote clipper extension to the Microsoft extension store is a big deal. it's been available in Chrome store forever and there are far more important extensions missing in Microsoft extension store.
there needs to be a way so that extension developers can submit new extensions for Edge insider into your store.
The sync functionality is very fragile and unstable right now. it's good when there is only 1 browser syncing but the problems start happening after there is more than 1 browser or device syncing to the same device.
there are Numerous posts of many people having this problem. some are seeing duplicate bookmarks, others are seeing missing data (bookmarks, passwords etc), some others are not seeing changes applied to one browser being applied to others.
Yes Favorites, passwords, address, open tabs Syncs are enabled but It's gonna take at least 1 year to make them reliable.
I completely agree with you, creating Edge on Chromium opens the doors to more developers to create content and addons for Edge Chromium. With that being said, I want to make sure that this eco-system does not become dependant on Google's existing web-stores. While the functionality is cool, the ability to add content right from there is also cool. I worry about Google waking up one day going 'We don't like this,' and canning that functionality.

I think Microsoft should create their extension submission portal setup soon for developers and also create a Fork of Chromium source and have their own engineers, developers, employees work on that.
so it will stay open source but this time Microsoft, instead of Google, will be the one managing it.
honestly I think it's very much worth it because it's a new browser that has so much potential.
