Frist reason why I do not usually use FB login. The second is that they can peruse through your posts and informations, I once published a strong and politically uncorrect opinion on a site which I visit only sporadically... and found the company I work for written beside my name.
Now, of course it didn't happen anything - and I pulled off from "Public" my company's name, but that's bad privacy, other than a single point of access. A single virus or attack or backdoor on one of my devices connected to FB and I would be fried all over the world. Just a big nope.
The only problem I have with many passwords is that many sites
- Store them in a retrievable way
- Do not accept not alfanumeric characters (so no %$&£#@) which of course I use
- Are limited in lenght!! My Inusracne company and other sites limit the size of password TO 8 characters maximum.

All great points and I agree.
Also, I've found that there are lot of sites which limit the password in different ways.
It is as if someone completely backwards on security has designed the system.
Oh, wait, I think I've figured out the problem.

I haz da codz.
Rot-13 should do.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROT13[^]
string EncryptPwd(string clearPwd)
{
string cipherPass = string.Empty;
foreach (char c in clearPwd)
{
cipherPass += Convert.ToChar(c + 13);
}
return cipherPass;
}
string DecryptPwd(string cipherPwd)
{
string clearPass = string.Empty;
foreach (char c in cipherPwd)
{
clearPass += Convert.ToChar(c - 13);
}
return clearPass;
}
NOTE: I marked this as joke, but someone will come along and use it for their SUPERSECURE Web Site.

Good grief, I really think my car insurance and the national train service actually use this code.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

That sounds very very angry
[Edit]
Why, why US needs to take care about that? Because Soccer is that popular in US? I don't think so... it is only that some attorneys like to make big Money.

I've been using it for about a month or so. I find that many of my favorite sites work just fine and appear to load fast (CP, Facebook, YouTube, etc.) but then if I stray and get sucked into something like a site with the top 17 funnies cat videos or whatnot, the pages are agonizingly slow. Probably partly due to Edge not have my beloved AdBlocker but is it really just that?
Are others not seeing the hyped speed improvements too?

I found similar experience.
I was using Edge to watch video on youtube and TED.com and found that Edge would often stutter in rendering the video & audio.
Using Chrome I had no issues with those sites at all on the same laptop running Win10.
The rest of Edge I much prefer over IE.

Right. Edge wins in comparison to IE but does it win when compared to other browsers?
|

I haven't installed Firefox or Chrome since I did a clean install of Windows 10 in early August. Since I've never used add blockers in any browser I can safely say that Edge is as fast or faster than any other browser I've used. If a site uses too many ads I simply click away from it or close the window.

I found that Edge tries to do everything within the Edge package -- a great majority are in direct conflict with software provided by the copyright holders of the technology they are trying to emulate. I will admit that the PDF viewer is quick, but terrible if you want to extract text from a page for quotations in a thesis paper. The other holdup is SSL security checks where a minor conflict occurs. The pop-up window sometimes comes in BEHIND the Edge window and Edge stops, waiting for your reply to a question you can't see.
There are a few other anomalies that I find irksome. Prime example is that you have to left-click select on a right-click display of redirect options. (I'm one of those individuals who performs a search and right-clicks the links to display the results in new-tabs for detail comparisons.)
The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.

Great analysis and info. Thanks.

Edge is better than IE - but then what isn't - but it's not as good as I hoped. It was a little faster than Chrome on some sites, and loads slower on others. It's ugly, uBlock doesn't work, and it got replaced with Chrome after a couple of hours. Haven't been back since...

I can't find enough issues with Firefox to even bother trying other browsers. Until then, why even look. That would be like Naggy switching from gin. Why, the bottle isn't empty!

I only have Edge on my new laptop and since I'm still doing 90% development on my 6 year old tower, I haven't used it much. For the occasions when I did use it, the most notable thing to me was that MS still haven't fixed the 'bug' where downloading a file with an 'unknown' extension tries to switch the extension to .zip. Is that supposed to be some sort of safety feature?

All MS browsers like to download jars as zip. it's annoying when you download several and then have to rename them all. (It's annoying to even have to download several jars when you don't even work with java )
