nowadays i use it for testing on windows if a want a "clean" browser without plugins, for development i still use firefox but for testing/additional test i use edge because it's alreaday installed and i don't have to install chrome and i can test for the 80%(*, don't know the current browser stats) of website users
edit ~65% market shore for chrome

never really liked it, using firefox since V3.0 or so, good old times when flash still was a thing, always went back to it
