Switching to another Chromium-based browser isn't likely to change anything if it's a problem in Chrome. But yes, try Firefox.

That said, there's no reason to distrust Edge, because it's NOT IE. Edge is Microsoft leaving IE behind and fixing the bad decisions they made in IE. That's one of the reasons they didn't call it IE12. And modern Microsoft is WAY better at this than IE-era Microsoft. Yes, Edge isn't as fast as Firefox or Chrome, but it's just as secure as either of them and very nearly as robust in terms of functionality. Microsoft deserves credit where credit is due. (It might actually be MORE secure in practice than Chrome in some ways purely because it ISN'T Chrome. Which makes it depressing that the next version of Edge will be based on Chromium...)
