元々Vivaldiを使用しており、Edgeを試すにあたってスピードダイヤルツールとして試しました。 多少使ってみた結果、以下の様な感想を感じました。 ・ブックマーク欄が小さい(拡大するか、或いはニュース欄との割合を変化させられる様にして欲しい。ニュース欄あんなに多く要らないよ!) ・イベントリスト・Todoリストが有るのはgood。 何かと開くウェブブラウザの空白タブで予定・タスクを見せつけられるのは、専用アプリだの何だのを自分で開きに行くより余程目に付く。 ・ニュースについて、複数分野を事前に設定してワンボタンで切り替えたり出来ないだろうか?(「JP: トップニュース」「EN:ABC」「EN:CNN」「カスタムRSS1」等) ワンボタンで切り替えれる様にしてほしい。 I was used Vivaldi and when trying Edge download this. Using this little, I felt some impressions. ・bookmark column is small (I want to enlarge it or change the ratio with the news column. I don't need that much news!) ・It's good to have an event list and a todo list. It's more noticeable than opening own management app. ・For news, I want switch multiple types with one button. (Such as "JP: Top News", "EN: ABC", "EN: CNN", "Custom RSS 1")

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Better Tab: Speed Dial, News Feed & To-do requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
