A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Being built on Windows' own rendering engine, it's largely relying on Windows' own updates to keep it secure.

I wonder if this is because of their ads partnership they have with Microsoft atm, they kept that avenue open by relying on their engines and security updates??

It's the same on macOS too, using Webkit, and they released that first.

It's built on Blink, which is Google's rendering engine. Trident, the rendering engine Microsoft created died when they gave up on Edge.
