The way it works is that If another Edge connected to the same Microsoft account has any tabs open, you'll be able to see them there

Tabs from other devices: Here you’ll find all the tabs you have open in Microsoft Edge on other devices, including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Note: Both devices need to have history and tab sync enabled for them to show up.

you're welcome, yes try keeping both Edge browsers open and check how long it takes for a tab to show up there after opening it in another Efge
