This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
I decided to give into poor little Microsoft's constant persistent demands to play with its browser it won't let die.
And I have to say. After a week. It's not that bad. Its fast, and it seems to use less resources than the other two
(Though I could get a bit into conspiratorial speculation about why that might be)
Anyway, A lot of great things here.
One absolutely atrocious and glaring thing that I think might be specific to my setup due to how little I can find on it.
In edge, using a surface laptop trackpad to scroll. Webpages can be pulled past the edge of their margins on any side to operate functions like page back and forth, and even from the vertical axis of the page boundary.
The issue is that on a track pad. If you're not dead vertical to the trackpad when scrolling. It pulls the edge of the page as you scroll down and makes an extremely jarring and basically unusable experience. That and the jarring nature of scrolling to the top or bottom of the page while reading and having it roughly pull up on it to snap back into place. In many cases, It just wobbles the webpage incoherently if I'm off axis enough with my scrolling. I've been in lounging positions where I have to readjust the laptops orientation to a more uncomfortable one just to scroll consistently.
It's a very bizarre design decision. And maybe works fine for others. I can see how it wouldn't be that big of an issue for desktop use. However. I wouldn't be here writing this if I could find a setting or solution to turn it off. I've spent hours over multiple days every time it becomes a hindrance to search for the settings to change this. And have come up with nothing. And no forum posts substantially talking about it.
TL;DR Question form: How do I get settings to change or disable the overscrolling on the edges of webpages???
