Chrome's status dashboard says "deprecated" and
https://textslashplain.com/2019/11/04/bye-ftp-support-is-going-away/
said the plan was to turn FTP off by default in version 80. Yet, I
just successfully loaded ftp://ftp.funet.fi in Chrome 80 on Mac and in
Edge 82 (Canary) on Windows 10, and I'm certain I haven't touched the
flag in either. (The location bar kept showing the ftp:// URL, so it
doesn't appear to be a case of automatically trying HTTP.)

Do we know why Chrome didn't proceed as planned? Do we know what their
current plan is?

Do we know if Edge intends to track Chrome on this feature or to make
an effort to patch a different outcome?
