Edit: Looks like you can opt-out of that “new look and feel” pretty easily under the appearance settings but still, whats with putting rounded corners everywhere?
Edit 2: “Explore the web with a softer, more friendly aesthetic featuring rounded corners […] Designed to complement your operating system, whether on Windows 11, MacOS, or Linux.” The fuck does that mean? Windows 11 fair enough but most Linux distros don’t look like that at all.
The ability to pick a temp folder to store your downloads is a feature, not a workaround, and every browser has it since forever™.
There’s absolutely no way in Elon Musk’s xHell or Linus Torvalds kmodHeaven that you choose Edge just because it saves you 2.7s every time you download pepelore compilations in 4k HDR AV1.
My use case is this: opening invoices from the ERM. The web app sends it as a download. I open one every 2 minutes. On edge I have an “open” button that does what it says. On chrome/Firefox/opera/Vivaldi it just downloads and at the end of the month I have the download folder littered with thousands of useless files. Or I need to set it for opening to a dialog for a path that might be preset to a temporary directory (that on windows still must be manually cleaned). The time saving in my use case is a lot and this setting is synced to all my machines, where the temp directory workaround is not and I have to set to each single machine

Yes but it’s an hassle that can be avoided. The reason I stopped using chrome in 2008 was exactly this style of download. If Firefox has the same behavior of Chrome, then I don’t like it anymore
Just change the default… https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/where-find-and-manage-downloaded-files-firefox#w_change-where-downloads-are-saved
I have ten devices, I need to set this workaround on each of them. On edge the clearly labeled setting is automatically synced everywhere
