Use Calibre E-book manager (free) to read your EPUB files
FedeDiLo wrote:HotCakeX I disagree. 80 people want that capability. We want to use the actual reading mode, with the dictionary, the possibility to hear pronunciations, to use the immersive reader features, and Calibre does not offer that. Also, Edge ui is better, and edge is faster, and if 80 people put like Microsoft should consider that.
Be honest, how many posts here have 80 likes?
is your argument only the number of likes?
because that doesn't mean anything these days..
have a look at this Wikipedia page:
It may not be a priority feature, but it's definitely something many wants and they should consider adding it.

It means 80 insiders want the feature. We explained why we want that, and we don't ask anything special. It would be like opening pdfs, same ui, same features. We just want the capability to read the epub format. I don't think supporting a format like epub would be so time saving.

like I said, anyone can create fake accounts and like a post as many times as they want. it's Internet, you don't sign up with your social security number or a copy of your birth certificate.
you name 5 features that Edge classic has that is better for E-book reading, I can name 100 features that Calibre has which is good for E-book reading. because it is built for that matter.
E-book reader = E-book reader
Browser = Browser
E-book reader !=browser
- Browser == Google Chrome | Firefox
The only one reason to use Edge is the built-in epub reader.

Browser === Edge
the rest are wannabes
- Why anyone would create fake accounts to add likes in this tech community?? I do not even have a pdf reader. So according to your idea a browser shouldn't even be ready to open pdfs? Ffs

almost all browsers open PDFs now because that's the standard portable document format for businesses.
you never get to sign a form, contract, agreement etc that is in Epub format, because it is only for E-books.
E-books have their own readers, hardware and software, with their specific set of features.
PDFs on the other hand are used in lots of fields, including E-books.
