    I've heard that Microsoft have made it so that extensions can be easily ported from Chrome to Edge. Makes me wonder if Edge + All the extensions I use (Adblock, Speed Dial, Password Manager) would be enough to entice me away from Google's browser.

    Very doubtful it will be enough to entice me away from Opera.

    I suspect the same is true for me (with Chrome), when it comes down to it. However, it's a good development for those who use Edge - at least soon they'll be able to take advantage of Adblockers and other useful extensions. The only negative it it's taken this long for Microsoft to implement this important feature in one of its browsers.
