Download now and experience the Zen Browser

Zen Browser

Well I'd say try it out for a bit, see if it matches your workflow, and if it does then you can start migrating your stuff over, otherwise there's probably other options out there. You could probably customise regular Firefox to work how you want it to, with some effort

Yeye I just tested in safari, in Arc look  weird that animación 🫠

Is it your browser? I don't see this in Firefox but I'm curious what's going on here...

Oh I've been using sideberry for vertical tabs for firefox and it's been pretty flawless! Zen has been interesting as well as floorp. I don't like Arc's "I hope they forgot they wanted and requested this feature" ideology but I'm also wary of any Chrome variant.

You right, in Arc look like a bug but in Safari look so good

Oh that so sad, especially now that there are so many indie browsers out there. And maybe this is the signal to switch browsers, Arc and Figma are killing my RAM 💀

Is this a bug or was it planned this way?https://www.apple.com/mac-mini/

I meant cleaning up the other UI, like the top tab bar and everything else. I also used sidebery, but to customise it to look "native" to the browser is a lot of CSS work, both in the extension settings and userChrome.css. I do remember having a lot of fun with it though lol

I don't know if it's any better now, but if it's a built-in setting or something, and regular Firefox suits your workflow, then I'd say stick to it instead of committing to a fork that might stop getting updates if the devs stop being interested in the project

As for the Chrome variant thing, the way I see it, the only benefit to using Firefox- or Chromium-based browsers is their extension library. I don't use a lot of extensions, so I don't really have a reason to use any browser other than the built-in one, which in my case is Safari

Yeah, I generally don't like recommending forks of browsers unless they've proven their longevity, unless they offer something unique. Getting vertical tabs to work well in Firefox used to be really hacky, messing with userChrome.css and stuff, so Zen actually has some value here

There's Zen browser https://zen-browser.app/ which is made around the same idea and workflow as Arc, but on top of Firefox instead of Chromium. Also, it's open source, unlike Arc.

Or you could go back to good old Safari lol

Looks fine in Safari on Mac and Chrome on Android, might be a bug in your browser

A lot of these indie browsers are small teams with even smaller support teams, so even if the features are nice they might evolve, disappear, or end up being a paid model. It's definitely okay not to be an early adopter!

Agree with all of these...if you're doing important work things, I would stick to Firefox or something that has some longevity around it so you can guarantee your work works and behaves correctly.

I use Safari, it's built in, pretty fast and lightweight, and it works well. But if you're looking for good extension support and stuff, Firefox is generally better at that. I've also found it to be lighter than Chrome, at least when I used it on Windows and Linux. Worth a try

Yeah this happened to me often when using Arc, I'm not sure why it happens but have a backup browser if anything looks weird. My developer friends have spent sometimes hours on something only to realize it could be their browser. Weird stuff!

I try to use vertical Firefox and safari, but no vertical tabs is stop me, i found one called Orión that is like a Sister of safari but i don’t know

I haven't tried Orion, but I find the idea of it really interesting. You could try that out as well, if you find it works better for you compared to the others

Do you use it? Does it consume as much ram as arc? 👀 Maybe today is the day to try new things
