It’s not privacy focused but Arc is the best browser I’ve ever used once I got used to its quirks.

A single entity running the web is dangerous. Using different flavours of what is essentially Chrome is just as bad as using Chrome.

People should really switch away from chromium based browsers if they want to preserve the web. Google is really, really close to having full control.

Isn't Arc just chromium but it treats every page as it's own app?

It’s chromium (unfortunately), but yeah it kind of does that. It can open external links in a pop up. So for browsing sites with tons of links you don’t drown in tabs. It also has spaces, which is basically profiles but much easier to manage. And vertical tabs is probably the best feature.

I love Arc on my mac. It's great just looking at a site and not seeing any tabs. I just hate the fact it's chromium based.
