> There are “no plans” to make the browser (or its core engine) open source but Edge proudly incorporates open-source code
I'm tired of this trend. In my opinion saying you're using some piece of open-source library for XPath does not exonerate you from releasing a browser that isn't open-source in a market that has Firefox and Chromium. I'll bet they aren't going to release Edge for Linux either.
Microsoft has been copying Apple lately but Apple is the wrong model for Microsoft to copy.
