there is a dev build of edge for linux available with a beta reportedly coming soon, whether it has advantage over chromium on linux is another Q though (which I don't know the answer to)

Awesome Donkey:
As far as I can tell the MC Edge support relies on WebView2, which is a Windows-only technology. So even if you could use the Edge core on Mac and Linux, it'd likely function exactly like Chromium with the same limitations, so there's probably no point using anything other than Chromium there.

mattkhan:
by advantage I meant DRM, if (probably a big if) they did bring that to linux then that looks like a meaningful difference to me

Hendrik:
If such an ability comes available on Linux as well, we might look into it, however the browser itself and the API to embed it are two different things, so even if they have plans for that, it might take a while.

Sounds great,... I have been looking forward to being able to log into Youtube via MC again so I can replicate my old VHS mix tapes from the 1990s!!

I tried before and they worked, but I did not realise that the link expires after 1 or 2 days when you are not logged in to youtube.
