Why Edge Canary isn't updated Daily/Nightly?
HotCakeX Even if there isn't an automatic update, there may be one manually available. And since the exact release timeline may change due to issues in Chromium, we try not to firmly promise that it will ship daily.

Why do you want daily updates? are you that fan of bugs or unstable features?
it should be stable enough for public test, it is a sign of progress, give a good impression for existing customers and attracts new ones

Chrome Canary and Firefox Nightly always receive at least 1 update every 24 hours. they are not meant to attract users. developers explicitly state that they are meant for enthusiasts and they are very unstable and buggy.
right now with Edge, people have different expectations which is bad because we shouldn't expect Canary to be stable, it's the nature of it to be unstable.
more stable channels are Dev and Beta.
Canary should receive updates as soon as the code is ready.
actually people have different expectations which is bad because new stable Ege is much less feature than the old one, beside the long term plan they have for new features.
New fans and customer marketing people can tell you more about this fact
