In my saga for finding an Arc alternative

Vivaldi is dope, rides like a spaceship 
Zen is straight up an Arc clone and is... ok? 
Firefox meh 

I think one of my biggest struggles is that Arc put me in a mentality of running most of my apps as web apps and reducing the number of electron apps running on my computer. Examples include Spotify, Slack, Mail, etc. 

However that approach seriously feels unattainable with other browsers. I might have to cut my losses and use Safari or something lightweight for browsers then run more electron apps locally 

Seriously will never forgive The Browser Company ditching an incredible piece of software over the AI hype train.

Yet another update

I've been sticking with Safari but using local apps vs web apps for my daily use stuff

- Notion Suite 
- Slack
- Discord
- Spotify

All of these I used to use within Arc, where it made navigating between them all pretty seamless. Now that they're all apps I decided to use Raycast to assign hotkeys to all of them. 

- Mail: ⌥m
- Calendar: ⌥c
- Notion: ⌥n
- Safari: ⌥s
- Terminal (already had this one): ⌥j
- Slack: ⌥h 
- Zed: ⌥k 

So far this has been working really well and I actually enjoy the flow. Now my web browsing is limited to Warpcast, GitHub, and a few other sites I don't visit often.

Hoping Rainbow lets me in their safari beta or releases to the public. Until then I'm stuck using my phone :(

their beta had been running for at least a year, I’m not convinced there is anything actually there.
