I've used Arc (web browser) for the past few years, and it's good... but for software as security-critical as a browser, I don't love that it's really a side project for a VC-backed AI startup at this point. Writing on the wall and all that. So... 1/

2/ ... I've been using Vivaldi the past few weeks, and I think that's going to be the move. In contrast to Arc: with Vivaldi I did have to change a fair number of default settings to get comfortable. Move tabs to the sidebar, update some hotkeys, disable the page-changes-sidebar-color thing.

3/ With all that done, though, it works great! Enjoying the tab-stacking feature. And it's nice to be using a browser with healthier incentives again.

Have you tried zen-browser.app yet? a lot different, but some commonalities with Arc, but Firefox rather than chromium under the hood. I've been using it full time for months and found it pretty good.

I hadn't! I like the design and direction. Security is the main barrier for me... just a mostly-arbitrary hunch that a web browser needs at least one "security person" on payroll. 😥 Otherwise, I'd love to try Horse Browser too!
