it's TIME TO SURF | watch the gameplay of Microsoft Edge's built in game (Easter Egg)
I gotta admit, this is way cooler than I expected, definitely better than Chrome's 2bit dino game. 1080p 60FPS gameplay: https://streamable.com/tj4jj Edge automatically offers to play it when Internet connection is lost but you can also play it with Internet if you go to this URL: edge://surf/ p.s it's currently available only on Edge version 82 onward tested it on Version 82.0.436.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)New privacy oriented feature added to Edge 82 - Freeze User-Agent request header
New in Microsoft Edge Version 82.0.421.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) Reason for doing it is more about privacy and stopping fingerprinting. edge://flags/ Freeze User-Agent request header Set the User-Agent request header to a static string that conforms to the current User-Agent string format but only reveals desktop vs Android and if the 'mobile' flag is set – Mac, Windows #freeze-user-agent to be more effective, also enable this flag: Reduce default 'referer' header granularity If a page hasn't set an explicit referrer policy, setting this flag will reduce the amount of information in the 'referer' header for cross-origin requests. – Mac, Windows #reduced-referrer-granularity More info: https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5704553745874944 https://css-tricks.com/freezing-user-agent-strings/New feature in Edge 82 to improve Scrolling smoothness and animation
Noticed in the Edge Version 82.0.418.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) a new flag was added edge://flags/ Impulse-style scroll animations Replaces the default scroll animation with Impulse-style scroll animations. – Mac, Windows #impulse-scroll-animations I'm not sure but I think I notice some changes when I scroll, I mostly use my gaming mouse which has the fast scrolling mode but if you notice any difference, please comment down below.Bug with default zoom level in Edge
This is what I'm referring to Whenever I fresh install Edge on a computer, the zoom level in Edge settings is blank. I've tested it with: Edge 80 Version 80.0.361.54 (Official build) (64-bit) And Edge Version 82.0.425.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) on Windows 10 build 19041.84 (slow ring) and Windows 10 build 19564 (fast ring) Those Windows installations were fresh when I tested it. display driver was already installed prior to Edge installation. monitor resolution is 1920x1080 and Windows scaling was set to 100% recommended by Windows. so even though the zoom level is blank at first, I can still figure out what zoom level Edge has automatically set for itself by zooming in/out in a web page and it is sometimes 130% and 125%.
