It really is painful that out of the chromium browsers I'd choose Edge in an instant if they just would remove or allow me to remove the bloatware they ship with. I currently use Brave, which thankfully lets me disable all the crypto nonsense they ship with. I could see myself using Arc if they end up releasing a Linux/Windows port.
- subarctic 3y agoWho needs all that cryptography nonsense, right?
- quenix 3y agoI would assume OP meant cryptocurrency?
- Ygg2 3y agoParent meant the crypto currency attention token or whatnot. I don't use Brave.
- snapcaster 3y agoBrave is a browser with some kind of built in native cryptocurrency or something. Apparently despite that red flag the browser itself is decent
- renewiltord 3y agoArc has Windows now.
- elashri 3y agoFor clarification, It is available for beta testing where you have to apply [1]. I am not part of thus test but judging from the survey questions it seems it is not ready for everyday usage yet. Though I maybe wrong.

- open-paren 3y agoIt's in super-beta right now and has hardly any of the features of the Mac Version. Only split view and spaces work. No little arc, no easels, no Arc Max, no popup, no search discovery stuff. I'm still a happy user, but don't go into it expecting the exact same thing today.
- poetril 3y agoOh interesting, I wasn't aware. I'll have to try my hand at beta access, and try it out. I enjoyed my time with it on Mac. But use too many different OS's to daily drive it.
- kzhe 3y agoBrave is homophobic (to slightly oversimplify). Why not Vivaldi?

- shp0ngle 3y agoHow can a browser be homophobic?
- gpvos 3y agoI didn't know. Please elaborate.
- shp0ngle 3y agoWhat's nice about Edge? The only good feature they had - the vertical tabs - is now in Brave also
- rishav_sharan 3y agopersonally, I love the split tab view. Works really well during web dev where I can leave the left split to 3/4th size and the other split to show mobile like view port. With hot reloading, that makes things super nice.
