Arc is the best browser UI thus far. Everything else is still stuck in the late 2000s essentially

Some would claim that is a feature. Though personally i'm trying hard(ish) to make Firefox' UI closer to early 2000s :-P (thanks to userChrome.css).

Arc's pretty great, but I wish it had nested vertical tabs a la Orion.

That feature wasn't big to my browsing style, Arc's way of nesting browser views suits me more, but Orion's Saved Window feature seemed clumsy to me and I'd filed my issue on Orion Tracker.

Roughly around when the oligoculture started, and browsers stopped being "user agents", what a coincidence!

We need more browsers that focus on user features, not website features. The web is basically beyond feature-complete already, but the tools we use to interact with it are so basic. Like riding a horse on an interstate!

I didn't know Orion existed. Just tried and it is exactly what I want.

Excited to see where it goes. Hope Arc and Orion eventually decide to go open source.

> Hope Arc and Orion eventually decide to go open source.

From Orion’s FAQ:

> Is Orion open-source?

> We’re working on it! We’ve begun with some of our components and intend to open more in the future.

> Forking WebKit, porting hundreds of APIs and writing a browser app from scratch has been challenging for our small team. Properly maintaining an open-source project takes time and resources we’re short on at the moment, so if you want to contribute at this time, please consider becoming active on orionfeedback.org.
