It’s not often that companies get into scrapes on social media, but a few browsers recently exchanged a few playful quips on Twitter. In response to a tweet from Microsoft Edge bragging about Edge’s tab-pinning capabilities, both the Opera browser and the Vivaldi browser responded with tweets of their own. While the “conflict” began and ended there, it’s still always fun to see browsers brush shoulders on Twitter this way.

The “browser fight” was mainly about who came up with tab-pinning first – or, at least, who does it better. What do you think? Did Vivaldi break ground with tab-pinning, or was it Opera? Do you think that Microsoft Edge mastered the feature in the Anniversary Update? We’d love to hear what you think.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
