And it also as vertical tabs! Just checked out Arc. Very innovative design. I guess it's inspired by mobile browsers.


You can also group tabs in the vertical view but also create separate „workspaces“ (to distinquish between different projects or even private <> work).

Though the most innovative feauture is their deep integration of services like Notion, GitHub, telegram etc.

Quite astonishing actually and definitely one of my favourite pieces of software.


Seems to me that Arc is inspired by Operating Systems in general.

- Workspaces/Desktops with mouse gestures - Spotlight like Quick Launch - Alt Tab like Tab switch - Window management within the browser - Dedicated area for Media control - Widgets on mouse hover


Might as well go all the way, the browser is basically an OS anyway on top of your OS anyway
