Arc web browser review: a new way of using the internet - The Verge

Arc isn’t perfect, and it takes some getting used to. But it’s full of big new ideas about how we should interact with the web — and it’s right about most of them.

I got curious. But I quickly realized it's ridiculous that The Verge didn't make a video. Who in 2022 wants to read an article about interactive tech? A video is worth 10,000 you know the thing.

It doesn't even have a Wikipedia page nor does anything else in the following...

Arc (Internet browser), a new generation of Internet browser currently developed by Darin Fisher of The Browser Company

Is the browser just some kind of beta thing that might simply get axed?

    I don't think putting the tabs on the side is that much of a hassle, especially if you're on your computer a lot.

      This is trading the mild annoyance of reading text sideways and/or taking up a bunch of horizontal space with the mild annoyance of not having one or maybe two more lines of text on a webpage. And after all of this UI optimization, you still need to scroll down to read the next line of text after that

        You stop noticing the tabs on the side when you get used to them, and 2-3 lines of text isn't nothing. That's a entire comment on hexbear.net!
