There is no secret that no browser can currently dethrone Google Chrome from its dominant position. Google’s browser holds an immense 65% of the market with no signs of going down. Although the first place is unreachable at this point, other browsers are actively fighting for the second spot. And it appears that Microsoft is winning.

Microsoft is testing tight integration with Skype's "one click to call" solution. Select Insiders can now use Skype Meet Now right from the browser.

In June 2021, Microsoft released its official Outlook extension in the Edge Add-ons Store. The add-on lets you read and create emails from a small popup available on any web page.

Now Microsoft wants to integrate the project directly into its Edge browser.

After releasing the first Edge 100 build for testing in the Dev channel, Microsoft promoted Edge 99 to the Beta channel. Users can now check out the latest improvements coming soon to Microsoft Edge without installing less stable versions, such as Dev or Canary.

Startup Boost is one of the features that make the browser from Microsoft feel incredibly snappy and fast. Of course, it comes with a downside of having a couple of Edge processes in the background, but in return, you get a browser that launches in an instant.
