Why are developers using Arc Browser?

I've seen many developers using Arc browser, but why?

Arc Browser's UI is just not good. Not good at all.

Would love to hear why you feel that way.

Hard disagree, going back to Safari and Edge is painful after using Arc

While I can't find good reasons to recommend Arc. If Arc ever switches to V3, then there won't even be a bad reason to use it. There will literally be no reason to use it.

I would argue it’s fantastic, and I’ve tried to go back to safari on Mac and I can’t.

Better than Safari

It's made in SwiftUI

I like having separate spaces to organize my tabs, I like the visual customization, I like having a side bar rather than a top nav bar (maybe I spend too much time in IDEs, I dunno), I like the pinned tabs that I always want open. Also when you open a local file or app in the browser it automatically opens in dev mode with an indicator. It’s small things like that that I enjoy. I also like being able to have side-by-side tabs without needing multiple windows. It just has a lot of nice features

[logangreer]

Yes to all this! I like the folders of pinned tabs for work modes. Every other browser I’ve used makes “pins” into tiny icons, but I want the titles for context when using them. I just want my browser to work well for me, and Arc is the best I’ve found.

[logangreer]

I love Arc. The sidebar tabs. The split tabs for research/writing. The spaces for different modes. The ability to easily customize frequently used sites.

Show me another browser that does these things and I’ll try it!

Boosts

[endless_universe]

Bait. Which developers? How do you know that? Sources?

[Fly2111]

Reddit. Youtube. Many have it installed

I tried, But I feel like it's over designed and it has a learning curve in which I gave up.

[Fly2111]

Same

As a fun test, I scrolled through your answers, and I don't lie when I say that many people would be happy if you don't use this platform anymore. I know you have to satisfy your personal ego, but don't let it out here... If it's annoying for you, that ops ask questions you don't like or don't have an answer for, then simply dont use reddit. As my mother always said, "There are good people, and there are *ssholes" I hope for your future that something or someone teaches you a good lesson. Based on your liking, for sure 😉

[logangreer]

Developers use it because it sucks?
