If you're using the latest Edge based on Chromium, then it works just fine
with NVDA and JAWS. I would say that a statement like "Edge works best with
Narrator." Is probably referring to the original Edge that wasn't based on
Chromium. Of course, if you prefer Narrator over JAWS or NVDA then you may
still feel like Edge works best with Narrator.
