    For a moment, I thought that this was a revival of ViolaWWW (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ViolaWWW).

    Seriously, though, there's no information about whether it's FLOSS or proprietary, what telemetry it collects or not, or anything like that.

    Looked it over, as well as Charlie but having a hard time realizing the benefit of using this over Chrome or Edge. It makes me think of Opera which promised to be a lightweight browser that ended up turning into a resource-heavy browser. I'll have to play around with it and see if it does better than Edge or Chrome but so far it seems similar to them.

      Well, it's trying to emulate the now-deprecated Arc Browser, with a bunch of built-in functionality that's hard to get natively in Chrome. Arc's been degrading slowly over time, though, as the Browser Company moved on to their new AI-enabled browser Dia.
