teamtuck,

Do I have 4 different browser running at the same time? Why yes I do. Firefox as a personal main, Safari for work, Edge for study (Azure certs), and I'm testing out Arc. I also bring up Vivaldi from time to time.

Thank goodness I bought my MBA M1 with 16GB RAM!

teamtuck,

First impressions of Arc:

  • It's Chromium based. Sigh.
  • Having tabs on the side isn't bad.
  • "Spaces" concept is something I really like.
  • "Little Arc" windows are a neat idea. Small, quick temp windows for fast lookups.
  • "Boosts" are simple ways to edit the DOM and make sites look "better". You can share your boosts too or use others.

Interesting ideas here.

teamtuck,

I've got using the Redirector extension so any YT video goes to my instance; works as expected. What I didn't expect? If I start playing a video and go to any other tab, Picture-in-Picture automatically comes up on the lower right corner! Super handy!

teamtuck,

Screw it, I'm having a good day and I feel pretty good. I'm going to use and learn for a week and see how it stacks to . I've downloaded the mobile apps as well to sync things across devices.

teamtuck,

You can setup "Spaces" in and then share them with people who don't even have Arc. Grab a group of URLs together and share them with other people. That's actually a cool feature.

teamtuck,

Ok, first hurdle with . If you have tabs open and you leave them there, they get "archived", aka closed automatically, after so many hours of your choosing (default is 6 hours). I understand why they do this (to keep things clean) but it gave me a little bit of a shock this morning lol.

Thinking about it, I think this is a me problem. I'm terrible about opening tabs and leaving them up.

Continued...

teamtuck,

Sometimes I leave them for later reference, but sometimes I leave them up for a "later" that never comes. I need to find a better way to do this.

I need a space to keep things around for "reference" and a space for "read later".

Bookmarks may be the answer but then that's something else to cleanup and manage.

Any thoughts?

ladyhope,

@teamtuck When I need to do a massive window clearing session, I submit everything there. Keeps it all for me, until I'm ready to get rid of it.

teamtuck,

@ladyhope Interesting. I don’t think I need this bad enough to pay a subscription though.

ladyhope,

@teamtuck It's also only once a year.

@ladyhope @teamtuck I've started sending my "read later" articles to Obsidian.

teamtuck,

@royal @ladyhope While that’s a great idea, I’d like for it to be integrated into the browser itself.

ladyhope,

@teamtuck @royal I would not. Decentralization is good, and I could see Google doing very bad things with that!

teamtuck,

@ladyhope @royal If there was an extension that integration with the browser and did it properly, then there shouldn’t be a problem.

There is also the probability that I could do a self hosted bookmarking service but meh. I’d probably forget about it.

@teamtuck @ladyhope There are some "save as markdown" extensions out there. Of course, you then have to leave your browser to review your saves.

teamtuck,

@royal @ladyhope That wouldn’t be bad for smaller sites/pages but large points of documentation would be nuts. I also use SingleFile which saves the page as a single HTML file, maybe even PDF?

ladyhope,

@teamtuck Oh, i do, because it's definitely worth it!!

teamtuck,

@ladyhope I love seeing people get what they pay for! A lot of things today don’t typically pan out that way….

ladyhope,

@teamtuck I've had conversations with that particular developer in the past, and he's definitely been very open to fixing any accessibility and/or usibility concerns that i had. I really never had any, but I just had a question as to why I could only see 200 links at once.

teamtuck,

@ladyhope 200 links?!?! Whoa!

ladyhope,

@teamtuck I tried to get him to put up to like 500 in, but he said it would be too hard on the database.

ladyhope,

@teamtuck Oh sorry, I didn't see the animateed image. You didn't provide description for it, and neither did my client lol.

teamtuck,

@ladyhope It was a GIF of Homer Simpson saying “Whoa whoa whoa” 😀

ladyhope,

@teamtuck lol that's funny hah!

teamtuck,

@ladyhope As long as it serves you in some way, I’m all for it. I used to hoard stuff all the time but it’s hard to keep up and not have things clean lol.

ladyhope,

@teamtuck Well I don't do the terrabytes and terrabytes of files! That's for sure. I don't want to go through drives like that.

teamtuck,

@ladyhope I currently have about 12TB to play with…. 😃

ladyhope,

@teamtuck Wow That's a lot of drive space!!

teamtuck,

@ladyhope I store TV shows, movies, games, books and software, so I need the space. We are daily users and I’m a fan of having physical and digital copies of media I enjoy.

ladyhope,

@teamtuck I never heard of that until just now. That looks like something epic!!!!

teamtuck,

@ladyhope Jellyfin is so awesome. We did Plex for years but they are doing some sketchy stuff.

ladyhope,

@teamtuck It's not a whole lot if you have over 17000 like me hah!

teamtuck,

@ladyhope 17k bookmarks?!?!
