Trying out Sidekick, Ferdium, Station, RamBox now.
Curious to hear what people’s opinions are on these, and if there are any I’m missing.
I’ve visited the websites of all of the browsers you listed. All of them have the same-ish UI. I don’t really know what a ‘workspace browser’ is so I don’t have nearly as concrete of an opinion as someone that uses one of these daily. But, from the UI alone, they feel like the Opera web browser (they are definitely not the same, and probably serve different purposes but this is the impression I get). Does one of these browsers have more features? Which one do you feel comfortable using?
Also, unrelated, but can you or someone else explain to me what is a ‘workspace browser’? What purpose does one of these serve?
We heard you like tabs so we put tabs in your tabs. Uh, dawg.
i used one of the above, rambox i believe. Its kinda like what you say abd every tab is its own container with its own cookies etc. I used to use it mostly for work to be logged into 2 or more separate AWS accounts at the same time. If you dont know, without something like ff container tabs, logging into a different aws account in a second browser tab invalidates your session in the first tab
Is there any reason these browsers would be more functional than regular Firefox with Sideberry or the Tree Style Tabs extensions?
I use Sideberry at work and at home. Between the containers, folder sorting, tab sleeping, and snapshots, I haven’t found another browser configuration that’s as flexible and functional.
Not to mention it works with any release or flavor of Firefox. So I don’t have to worry about weird issues with non-standard browsers.
*Bonus points if you take the 10 minutes to setup a stylesheet to hide the default horizontal tabs.
I like the dedicated buttons for opening “apps”, keeping them separate from tabs.
I love its clean interface and focus on privacy. The extensions library isn’t as vast as some, but its curated approach ensures stability and performance.
I’m using Arc browser full time for work and personal use now. Absolutely in love. They’ve just released publicly after a while in closed beta, so no more invite keys needed!
I used Ferdi then Ferdium on Mac. No complaints, Ferdium actually works better than Ferdi has. No need to reload a ‘tab’ because of crashed page and it doesn’t forget the Teams account / tenant setups. It’s stable and all notifications work fine.
