I have a Surface Book, once Edge support EFF Privacy Badger, Edge will likely become my default browser.


Sold my SP3, but do Firefox and Chrome both still feel wrong on the touchscreen, as far as scrolling and zooming go?

I'd been using IE on that thing on account of nobody else being able to do it right.


Chrome has gotten better with touch and pen support, but Edge is still much cleaner. Zooming in things like Google Maps on Chrome still isn't great, but the biggest issue is the mouse cursor disappears regularly with Chrome and requires a force quit of Chrome (which is trying to run in the background) to fix.

They both still need work. Opera and Edge are probably the two best touch browsers for Windows, atm.


If you're looking for privacy, I would stay away from proprietary browsers (and operating systems, especially those with mandatory telemetry that are produced by an NSA PRISM corporation.)
