Browser Updates: Chrome 100, Edge 100, and Firefox 100 – New Features and Issues
The article reviews the rapid rollout of version 100 for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, highlighting new icons, IE mode enhancements, PWA synchronization, hardware‑enforced stack protection, multi‑screen APIs, memory optimizations, and quirky April Fool's jokes, while providing download links and user‑agent workarounds.
Large browsers are updating rapidly; Chrome reached version 100, Edge followed, and Firefox is close to the same milestone.
Edge played an April Fool's joke about retiring, but also added IE mode improvements, hardware‑enforced stack protection, PDF signature verification, and a user‑agent version‑lock option.
Edge version 100 syncs installed PWAs across all logged‑in desktop devices, allowing automatic removal when an app is deleted on any device.
Chrome version 100 introduces a new icon, removes the “lite mode” on mobile, adds multi‑screen APIs for better window management, and claims reduced memory and CPU usage, though real‑world impact may be minimal.
Firefox also reached version 100; the article recounts historic cake‑giving traditions among browser teams and notes Firefox’s continued use of its own engine.
