So does this mean that Google is admitting that MS improved Chrome with their making of Chromium Edge? ... iirc Google said MS could not do this. I need to find that reference, I really do.

Don't we have a thread discussing this in the Tech News section?

 

My opinion on this is that it can only be good, to reduce the memory footprint a little. Though personally I don't use Chrome and my browser of choice, vivaldi, use slightly less RAM than Chrome (about 100mb less with the same 5 tabs open)

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3700x / GPU: Asus Radeon RX 6750XT OC 12GB / RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8GB DDR4-3200
