What are your favorite features of the new Arc Browser and do you plan to use it? At this time Arc for Windows is lagging behind the macOS version in features. Those features should be coming soon... Thanks for watching :)
Will have to give it a try, but not a fan of Chromium-based browsers. I've been using a browser called Floorp for the last few months, have you heard of it?
I have not. I'll check it out.
Excellent! Needed that, Have ARC but was confused about how to get the most from it, Thanks!!! Great tutorial Brett!
I'm a Brave loyalist, but I do love to see what other browsers have to offer. This one looks simple and fun
Good for you, unlike firefox fanbois who think no browser is like firefox
@@nirbhaykumarchaubey8777 there's an alternative to everything 😊
@@nirbhaykumarchaubey8777They are right, there's no browser like Firefox. Slow, clunky, not widely supported 😢
This is awesome. I first saw vertical tab stacking in Vivaldi and found it quite compelling. Now Safari has tab groups, which are similar to the Spaces in Arc, but Safari lacks much of the Chromium-based behaviour.
Thanks! Looks interesting. I'll try it out.
I enjoy all of your tutorials.
Does it consume much ram?
Brett! Thanks for posting this video
I always learn something from your videos.
I like a Chrome extension called Speed Dial 2. I can enter the URL of my favorite sites, and they appear as icons in an array as a home screen. I can add, rearrange and remove them easily.
Does Arc have anything like that? For that matter, does Brave, Opera or Vivaldi have anything like that?
Google Chrome extensions can used in the Arc browser so you should be able to use your preferred extension.
Compared to vivaldi and brave does it have an equivalent amount of features?
Vivaldi has tons of features but is a little heavy
Also, will ublock origin on yt work on it or not?
Great question
As Brett pointed out in his video, the Google Chrome extensions can also be used in the Arc browser.
@@soulaesthete8563 yes, but with UA-cam's war on adblockers it was only working on Firefox and brave for a while in between, haven't checked since
it works with 0 prob
What is your feedback on Arc's usage of memory resources?
I've been using the Windows version for a couple months and it quickly became my default browser. I do like it a lot, and it's not even at feature parity with the Mac version yet.
I'm using it on windows as well, are you able to share spaces? I click on it, but nothing happens :/
I've had Arc for a few months, and I use it when I remember. I find that Chrome extensions don't always work with it, which is a time-consuming nuisance, but general browsing is just fine. And it's not Microsoft. Or Google.
😳really? ooooo finally🥳🥳 i looooooove arc browser🥰🥰 now i can use on my windows yay🕺
Can you please do a segment on the best free fax apps ?
I been loving Arc browser in windows but still feels like a Beta, there is a lot of missing features from his version on MacOS, customization could be a bit better, i would like the URL to be in the same spot as his MacOS version (above your favorites) and they definitely need to improve the performance, specially when you open it when it's fully closed, microsoft edge opens like in less than a second, while Arc can take up to 5 seconds or more
Looks decent - what are the privacy claims?
Why use this over Firefox tho
_sigh_ I miss the days when you could just start your computer and use the Internet. Now everyone requires you to create usernames and password in a world of regular data breaches where personal data and usernames/passwords are stolen daily and companies tell ou to change your password as a precaution.
Looks like Arc browser would run in ArcH linux. Linux is best from safety point of concern.
Interesting 🤔
Prefer Brave, but giving Arc a try. I do like how it displays mail clients. It may be a fine companion browser.
Can you please share something about the differences b/w Vivaldi & Arc
I have been using Vivaldi for the past year & it is fast, clean, as minimal as you want && It has workspaces which is similar to what arc has, sure there are differences & that's what I want to know
What kind of privacy features does it have? Is it anything like thorium or firefox?
this browser is more focused on ui like concept browser like opera neon for privacy stick to firefox forks or brave
Floorp←Firefox fork, better privacy!
@@Plaseebo Surprisingly, there are already a lot of Arc-like Stylesheets for Firefox
Having to create an account ... doesn't sound good.
Agree
Isn't what Google Chrome already does so much so that people's got used with it that become hush hush?! So why is that that you're so surprised about Arc browser?!
@@vla2uv It's not like Google Chrome forces you to use an account to use the browser. With Arc they force you to use and create an account from them to even use the browser at all.
Agree, they track and id all your actions
@@vla2uv Google Chrome doesn't force you to use or create an account. Arc does.
Does VIialdi and Edge provide almost all these features already?
I use Firefox and have done so since it started. I do use Brave a lot and like that as well. I cannot see anything about Arc that has any appeal or has anything that makes it worth having to be honest.
What's the point of being honest in the deep dark web-world full of cybercriminals?
The download and installation is giving problems.
The download server gives an error code.
I reported this to Arc, received an email, stating we're on it, but thusfar no solution.
Give them a day or two. They generally have large well-disposed and well-dispersed teams operating from around the globe, to provide ever-satisfying user experience, that we all crave for, in moments of despair, isolation, and chronic rush.
@@kumardigvijaymishra5945hello , thanks for you comment, but is has been 2 weeks now
I love Brave and Vivaldi.
login accout then not opening Arc browser.
Vivaldi does all that and more.
What WOULD be cool is if it wasn't chrome.
why does it require sign in at first setup?
They have to allow us to use Arc without have to login, until them i will wait
this feels like concept browser tht comes and goes like opera neon cant switch from daily browser ui like edge or chrome and for privacy there is brave and firefox
edit : most feature arc is offering r already available in edge along with copilot ai
do i think its good yes
do i want to swap off fire fox no
i would much rather simmler features in firefox
I use brave and chrome if it uses less ram and is faster in loading pages then hell yeah i will switch.but yeah its based on chromium so same speed and ram usage
Nope, not all Chromium based browsers take the same RAM. Arc takes more RAM than Brave, use it side by side with the same number of tabs and check the resources. Edge also takes less RAM than Chrome.
@@SouravSatvaya oh i see thanks
You can get most thing with firefox CSS. As it is still very basic in windows, better to switch everything later. Edge/firefox/vivaldi even opera is now better alternative than chrome. Arc needs sometimes to include all of its features in windows version. After that, it will surely be a great browser. Meanwhile, you can try some different browsers, like sidekick, wavebox, stack next se, sigmaos(macos)
this may be going to be weird for many, but I'm really content with Edge.
I use Thorium and Vivaldi.
I was out as soon as I heard create account.
I doubt that you still use a dumb phone and since you certainly use a smart one you can make use of it WITHOUT having to open an account and log in to it! Does Apple let you use an iPhone without an account on iCloud?! Or perhaps Android WITHOUT opening a Gmail account and login to it?! Why are you such a wheepy?! You can run, but you can't hide, ma man!😊
I fail to see the hype. Tree tabs is great extension. You can use it anywhere. I prefer floorp (a fork of firefox).
Overrrated. Doesn't offer anything new that Vivaldi or Edge doesn't. I just installed and tried and then uninstalled it after watching your video
I totally agree !! all of the grouping, pinning and splitting features are also available on Edge! even the vertical tabs are!!
this feels like concept browser tht comes and goes like opera neon cant switch from daily browser ui like edge or chrome and for privacy there is brave and firefox
@@djalilabd1847 ya edge even have ai like copilot its helps me day to day tasks
@@Plaseebo totally
It became popular because of the Mac users and they heavily praised and promoted it, then Windows users demanded it to be on the Windows platform. I think it became so powerful among Mac users because most of them use Safari and it doesn't have these features, though I'm sure because I don't own a Mac.
The epitamy of a chromium browser has already've been met: its name is Chrome OS itself! The epitamy is since it is an All In One Solution being a browser and an operating system concurrently! How many browsers do you know is and an operating system as well?!
I disagree. Google Chrome is a resource hog with few features and is slower than it used to be. That's why there are other successful chromium-based browsers like Brave, Edge, Vivaldi, etc.
@@soulaesthete8563 You didn't get it! Is the epitamy simply since engulfs an operating system and a browser, as well, an All In One Solution! Is there any other browser that is an OS, too?!

seems useless to me, you gotta make an account and re learn where tabs are located, plus the tab bar wastes so much space and there are no unique features
You can hide the tab bar by default. And the minor struggle of relearning where tabs are is worth the value of actually having tabs organized. And... There are dozens of unique features. That's like the whole point.
Read the website. There's like a whole lot reason why they made Arc. And they make you create an account to not lose all your pinned tabs, folders, and favorites. Maybe you'll collect enough sense to click your URL bar and search what's the use of the browser.
You need an account to use a browser? That's reason 1 to throw it in the trash right away.
what is the point if it's built on chromium, just another useless browser
It's designed for minimalism, and organizing. You wouldn't want to use it if you're not into those things.
sticking to floorp browser
Edge already offers most of these features, among others.
good replacament still running on chromium lol
"Create an account", that's where I stopped.
>new browser
>advertised as a chrome replacement
>Look inside
>chromium
>:(
What's the point? Everything is just chromium anyways.
@@fortnight_0 Firefox
@@fortnight_0safari and Firefox are not chromium
Having to create an account and no ipad version makes this browser useless for me. And focusing in windows without finishing Apple ecosystem correctly makes me believe this is just a data hoarding app and uses battery a lot in laptops
ive been waiting for years for that and now i have to create an account? don't like this one bit
Built on Chromium? So just re-inventing the wheel, then.
You need windows 11. Not gonna happen
requires an account, no thanks
Immediately stopped considering and watching after saying that I need to login to an account or create one. No thanks
@soulaesthete8563 You didn't get it! The epitamy is since Chrome OS is an All In One Solution being a browser and an operating system concurrently! How many browsers do you know is and an operating system as well?!
Most importantly for all the Linuxphillic users, the question is, "Will Arc work in Arch Linux?"
