I know you can play the game at chrome://dino, but it doesn’t evoke the same nostalgic feeling of a 10yr old me turning on aeroplane mode and spamming space bar to try and beat my brother’s high score. Good memories.

    I’m very glad it works for you. Edge is a perfectly fine browser ever since they ditched their engine and copied Google’s Chrome with a coat of paint and a couple extensions baked in.

    To be frank though, if Edge forking Chromium is the best the tech titan Microsoft can do, I’m genuinely disappointed in them, and I’d rather just use Chromium.

      I think it was a sensible decision to drop their own engine as nobody liked it anyway. Might as well go with a proven one and use your resources on stuff your customers want you to focus on. Since Nadella took over, Microsoft has been very well managed imo and they made a lot of right moves, like their move into cloud computing, embracing open source, integrating linux subsystem on windows, etc…

      Their choice to ditch their IE/edge engine is a symptom of these better managerial choices.

        Hi, I am nobody ;-; I am a dirty casual not caring for privacy too much ( more than every day Mark, quite a lot less tha you folk ) but I absolutely loved Spartan Edge. It was quick, low memory usage and I absolutely loved it. Dropped chrome for it. And…then it was killed ;-;

        Edit: I feel a lot of hate towards Edge comes from people connecting Edge to IE which…couldn’t stray further from truth.

      They haven’t forked it though. They’re actively contributing to Chromium so Chrome users benefit as well.
