So this new browser by https://thebrowser.company .

Some good ideas, like pinned tabs. (Will soon be copied I would think.)

Some concerning: lots of data apparently gets sent to Google, unless you turn if off/

Some features I would miss from Firefox, particularly containers. I have walled off some companies (like Meta) and use them to easily access multiple accounts at others (like Mastodon.social)

But the biggest question is: what's their business model? They have venture investment.

cutitdown,

@J12t Not quite the same, but you can create separate profiles that keep that stuff separate. You'd just have to make a space with a profile for each website you want fully separate.

zyanklee,

@J12t you are aware, there are pinned tabs in at least Firefox and Chrome, too, right?

@J12t Arc actually have something called Spaces, which is the main reason I’ve been using Arc as my primary browser.

But that’s because I had missed Firefox’s containers. Seems to be exactly what I need – and makes it possible for me to switch back.

Ncstarguy,

@J12t unless users are paying them money, their business model is selling users by the pound.

@J12t The sheer amount of "totally organic" thinly veiled advertising for both Arc and Brave has completely soured me on both. Brave is funded by crypto weirdos, Arc is funded by the same funders funding the crypto weirdos. No thanks.
