How to Get Microsoft Edge on Your Mac: A First Look

Microsoft has finally released its popular web browser, Microsoft Edge, for macOS devices. As a long-time Safari user, I was excited to try out the new browser and see how it compares to my usual go-to app.

Upon first launch, Edge offers to import bookmarks from Chrome, but not from Safari, which is the default Mac browser. This was a bit surprising, as I would expect seamless integration with other popular browsers on the platform.

As I began using Edge, I noticed some non-standard contextual menus that felt quite alien to me. The close buttons on the right side of the tabs also gave it an unfamiliar feel. It's clear that Edge is trying to make its mark on the Mac ecosystem, but it still feels like a port from another operating system.

Despite these initial impressions, there are some notable features that set Edge apart from other browsers. One of my favorite aspects is the ease of changing font sizes, which is especially important for accessibility reasons.

To get started with Microsoft Edge on your Mac, you can download the Canary Channel version from the Microsoft Edge Insider Channels page. From here, follow the prompts to install and run Docker Desktop on your Mac.

In conclusion, while Edge still has some kinks to work out in terms of its integration with other Mac browsers and features, it's an exciting development for those looking for a new browser choice on their platform. With its ease of use and accessibility options, Microsoft Edge is definitely worth checking out.
