I really appreciate that there's a company trying to reimagine browsers. Arc was an interesting idea, I used it for a few months, but in the end I switched back to Firefox. I haven't tried Dia yet, and now I'm not sure if I should.
I do think that selling a browser is going to be an extremely difficult task, so having an enterprise software machine with huge customer base might help it, but Atlassian strikes me as a company that will eventually just kill the project and turn this into a de facto acquihire.
If you liked Arc, you should try Zen. I understand it brings many of the same ideas to a Firefox base.
Thanks for recommendation, I'll give it a try
+1, i used firefox since my childhood, never interested by Arc because it's idiotic to me that a browser requires an account. a while back someone suggested Zen, i now use it as my main browser since a bit over a month. really happy :)
Skip Dia, it's a security nightmare.
I never tried it because I was on Windows at the time but I remember my brother raving about it constantly, that I had to try it etc (and reading other people saying the same thing).
I think he's still using it. He probably would have paid something for it.
But then overnight they just weren't interested on building it. So strange.
Right! So many people would have actually paid for Arc to keep active development going, but without even giving that option they switched to Dia...
Atlassian doesn’t kill the products of companies they acquire
