| 1446847 | 2018-02-28 07:43:00 | So Edge is looking good, and that new printing feature Wainuitech mentions looks good to. Heres a review on it, I'm on a Normal W10 at the moment not the insider. print-website-articles-clean-and-clutter-free-with-microsoft-edge/ (www.groovypost.com) |

| 1446848 | 2018-02-28 07:49:00 | I use Chrome because its not just a browser, it is an OS on its own, and as I do most of my work online it suits me fine. It is a bit heavy on resources but not considering what Chrome will do. As for Edge, I have tried several times, but the lack of extensions makes it impossible for me to use, also I use Linux most of the time because its faster, and doesn't get busy with updates, virus scans etc when you are trying to get something done. Its all a matter of preference, each to his own. Tried Opera recently, not bad at all. | mzee (3324) | ||
| 1446849 | 2018-02-28 19:05:00 | 1 Opera and 2 Chrome with occasional resort to 3 Edge. Got rid of Firefox when they eliminated FireFTP, their most useful add-on. | coldot (6847) | ||
| 1446850 | 2018-02-28 20:22:00 | when some of MS's own products dont work 100% with Edge .... and that was admitted by MS .... says it all really |

| 1446851 | 2018-02-28 22:42:00 | From a web developer's point of view: please oh please stick with Firefox ;) I don't understand quite what you mean. But I will if you get Stuff and the Herald to optimise their sites for Firefox. But I suspect there is a deeper problem at Firefox, they have known their printing sucks for years, and have not bothered to do anything about it. I know we are all different. But I like to print pages out. |

I can't even remember the last time I printed a web page, but the rendering engine in any non-Microsoft browser has always been superior to what Microsoft have done, even in Edge ;) |

| 1446853 | 2018-03-01 14:53:00 | Yeah Im'm in the same boat, I have used Firefox religiously for a really long time now. I have to admit that more problems seems to have start accurring since the release of Quantum.... my preference would be to stay on Firefox as as I used quite a few add-ons plus I'm so used to the interface I don't really want to change, I'm not at the end of my tether with Firefox but I do get a bit annoyed when Edge/IE are able to display web pages better than FF. I will stick to Firefox for the moment at least as long as my patience doesn't run out. |

| 1446854 | 2018-03-01 17:38:00 | I don't seem to have any of the issues with FF that others have. Stuff.co.nz renders fine for me | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1446855 | 2018-03-01 20:25:00 | I don't seem to have any of the issues with FF that others have. Stuff.co.nz renders fine for me Same here. All the plugins I was using either had WebExtension versions, had a reasonable replacement or were unnecessary anyway. |

| 1446856 | 2018-03-01 20:57:00 | Firefox displays the pages correctly, printing, total rubbish and incorrect. Take a look at the following two pictures, its an article from the herald. 1st Edge ( and every other browser), the preview is as its written on the site and prints as such. The complete article when printed should be 5 pages. 2nd Picture, Firefox, most of the text is missing and only 2 pages. 8721 8722 |
