Microsoft Edge’s New Split Screen Feature: Will It Affect the Way You Use Tabs?
Microsoft is testing a new feature for Edge that allows you to split tabs within a single browser. The split screen feature, first discovered by a Reddit user, is accessible via an experimental flag in Edge Canary.
Currently, the experimental flag is only available in the Canary version of Edge for Windows, Linux, and Mac.
How Will Edge’s Split Screen Feature Work?
Users can view multiple apps simultaneously thanks to the split screen feature, which eliminates the need to maximize or minimize individual tabs.
When you enable Split Screen, a new icon appears to the right of the address bar. By clicking it, you can split the active tab into two and view the web pages side by side. When you do this across multiple tabs, you effectively double the number of pages you can see without increasing the number of tabs.
You can also right-click and open a link in a “split window.” This divides the active tab into two and loads the link in the other half of the screen. This will help youorganize your browser tabswhen reading posts with links or doing web research with many open tabs.

Split Screen in Edge: A Convenient Browser Feature
Windows and macOS already have the split-view option that lets users view windows from different open applications. This feature is useful, but splitting a browser tab screen to view two web pages simultaneously is much more efficient and convenient.
Although Microsoft has not specified when the new split screen feature will be available, you can access it via the experimental flag in Edge Canary. This feature, paired with other novel Edge features, can improve your browsing in many ways.

My foolproof plan is to use Windows 10 until 2030, with the latest security updates.
I plugged random USB devices into my phone and was pleasantly surprised by how many actually worked.
