Why would anyone use a browser that requires you to login, especially after that: kibty.town/blog/arc/

i tried it with bogus accounts just to see what all the hype was, and yea… it’s just bloatware pretending to be something “new” and “innovative” just to get suckers to sign up with their actual info

I really like the vertical tabs, the split profiles, the quick notes and the mini windows for links from other applications. If there is a prior product with all these features I’d love to try it. Please send a link.

All of those are problems which extensions already mostly solve. Firefox has tree style tabs, sideberry and tabstash. You can hide the horizontal tab bar with css. You can create multiple profiles in Firefox, and you can open separate isolated windows for each. Notes depend on your chosen software, but simple browser-only extensions exist. I don’t care about mini windows; that is a non-issue already solved with tab mgmt keyboard shortcuts.

What I’m reading here is that it is new for a browser to offer all those features. You’d need to do a bunch of customisation to reach a similar result otherwise. It’s fine that people don’t care about it, but that doesn’t make it less new.
