Thanks for being a Microsoft Edge Insider!!
- It's nice to see the full screen dropdown menu works perfectly with OS's built in top bar.
- I don't even use MacOS, but it's good to see Edge now.
manideep23 That's great. Edge can now be run on Windows 10 ARM SoC's and Mac M1 SoC's. Are there any plans to make Edge available for Linux-based ARM SoC's, such as the BCM SoC's powering Raspberry Pi computers?
manideep23 This isn't packaged properly, unlike Firefox for M1. In particular, it first asks to install Rosetta2, which is unacceptable, perhaps because the installer package contains an Intel binary for Microsoft Updater.
