Just how good is life on the Edge?

Is it suitable for use as a daily driver yet?
What's working and what isn't at the moment?
Does anyone know of any recent demo videos of it - or can someone who uses it make one, so that we can see...
I'm obviously really interested in the Edge... I want to jump... I just need to know when!

@3arn0wl I've had a quick look and read around and think it's only just reaching trial everyday use. It should be ok to try but expect the unexpected etc. etc. can you remember what dev used to be like.

Here's a short Youtube video (not mine) from May:
Ubuntu Touch edge channel update
The same user posted an earlier look at Edge back in March:
Ubuntu Touch edge channel test
Pretty sure I recognize the username as a member of the community either here or on Telegram, but I could be mistaken.

@3arn0wl It will never be intended for daily use because there are things that lands on it that can break it.
But to be fair, it's better and stable than ever before. I think the biggest user-facing issues were already fixed.
You can try it out and use it for some days. Just don't update to avoid breakage. It's really easy to go back to stable. You don't even have to use a PCIt'll also help you prepare for losing scopes and having the app drawer

Just to be clear, it's not my video, just one I found not long ago when looking for UBPorts videos on youtube.
