Reviewer scorecard
“Spaces changed how I work. Work tabs in one space, personal in another, client projects each get their own. Context switching without tab chaos.”
“The free tier is genuinely usable. Rare for this category.”
“Arc is beautiful but the company pivoted to a new product. Updates have slowed. The future is uncertain. Switching browsers is a big commitment for an uncertain product.”
“The dev tools work fine since it is Chromium-based. Boosts for customizing internal tools are useful. The command bar is faster than Chrome omnibox.”
“Fast, reliable, and the docs are actually good. Ship.”
