The company behind Arc is now building a second, much simpler browser

The Arc browser isn’t dead — it’s just finished.

Just switched to arc on windows. It’s really buggy but I wanted to still give it a chance because it feels really nice when it does what it should. I hoped it will get better over time. Still hope so but I don’t believe anymore…

    This looks great, how have I not heard of that?

    Can you install Firefox addons? How is keyboard navigation?

      It can install addons like any other FF fork, and there’s an entire settings tab with a long list of keybinds.

        Nice, that’s great to hear! I’ll give it a try

            I’m not sure I’ll stick to it yet, since I really heavily on vim bindings through Tridactyl, and I got a feeling they won’t play nice (yet?). Zen is also not packaged on nix yet, so configuring it declaratively is going to be a pain

            But I like what I see, so I’ll give it a shot! If it’s not for me, I can still recommend it to others, some of my friends are newly moving to Linux and I’ll take that chance to get them to ditch Opera, this might replicate some of the features quite nicely. Cheers!
