Your either going to laugh or be as bewildered as I am...
I've not had vert tabs yet on my pc's... Now Yesterday my daughter was having trouble with edge on her laptop, so I take and give it a go-over, she has an "HP Pavilion 15-cr0037wm X360, 15.6" FHD Touschscreen, Intel i3-8130U, 4GB RAM, 16GB SSD, 1TB HDD, WIN 10" The problem was a bad cookie, but while I'm there I log into my account and update canary while I have her laptop to the latest version. Version 88.0.673.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit), and when edge reboots, low and behold what do you think I find.... yep Vert tabs!! Now why on "my" microsoft account etc.. would I get Vert Tabs on the same version of Can on her laptop, but not here on my desktop pc.. ? This is tooo funny..

lol that is funny but um there is a thing called user ID or something like that, a unique identifier for each Edge installation. I think they distribute experimental features among those IDs randomly (while taking IP location into consideration to see if user resides in a supported country) and that's why you get different features.

Hhmm, so your saying that even though I log in with the same MS Id in all installations of canary edge on any pc/laptop will not matter because each edge installation has its own id..
That is SOO wrong, if I have the exact same setup on all my canary installations I should be getting all the same features, rollouts or not.. At least I'd think so... Another reason for them to just give to all Can users.. lol
Dennis5mileP.S. to clarify, I'm not saying you're wrong, but that I think they should take another look at how they set rollouts up.. 😄
