another proprietary browser gone? oh no! anyway.

Dia is terrible. Time for me to swtich to a different browser that has the sidebar tabs.

without sounding dense, can anyone tell me why i wouldve even considered trying Arc? just seemed like a hype train with no goal

Encapsulates enshittification in the current era really well, actually.

The lasting memory of these guys is how they refused to listen to their users. It was insane from the beginning how little they cared what their niche demographic even wanted. It got so bad so fast that after trying to get an invite and waiting a few months by the time I got invited it was already clearly a shit show and I didn’t even bother trialling it. The WeWork of browsers.

Never trust a product that takes VC funding. Take advantage of the subsidized prices but have your backup ready.

I feel no small amount of satisfaction and schadenfreude, considering how hard this thing was shilled by the usual "Apple supremacist" suspects.
