Nice explanation. I haven’t used it enough to judge yet myself. So far I find myself frustrated with the merging of tabs and bookmarks. Perhaps I’ll get used to it but it makes no sense to me yet. I see no viable substitute for traditional browser bookmarks (at least not the way I use them). 95% of my bookmarks are pages I do not visit every week or even every month. Where are they supposed to go where they’re both accessible and out of the way? Folders don’t seem like a solution to me.
Edit: another day in and I get it now. I realize now that opening folders in the pinned tabs section is madness, but there is a viable alternative: hover over the folder, then scroll/search for the bookmark you want and click it. That “tab” will now appear under the folder under pins, but the folder otherwise remains closed. So my tabs list does not get cluttered with inactive bookmarked pages, only the ones I have specifically opened, and only until I close them.
This isn’t a huge departure from “traditional” bookmarks systems.
So far I find that Lemmy specifically is much better in Arc, because link to external sites open in popup tabs. All this time I’ve been spawning whole new tabs for quick reads like an animal. The future is now!
