After more than six months after the launch of the Dev version of its Edge browser on the Linux operating system last October, Microsoft launched the beta version of its Chromium-based web browser bringing the browser another step towards the stable version.
Beta versions are more stable than the Dev ones- although I have not experienced any crash or problem in the Dev version throughout my use of the browser -, and they are updated once every six weeks, unlike the development version, which is updated on a weekly basis, and this is a good thing for those who don't want to see annoying notifications asking them to install browser updates every week, they prefer instead to focus on their business and productivity.
The release of the beta version for Linux users may also be related to Microsoft's efforts to unify the code base for its new browser-based Chromium across all platforms to accelerate its development, and this can be confirmed by the fact that the company had launched a Dev and a Canary version of the browser on Android in recent days, as well as re-opening the Microsoft Edge program Beta for iOS users last month.
