I don't get this post. It's just shilling for Arc, no?
@Carighan definitely not, gosh.. since I use Firefox over years and see how the user base is moving from the Firefox to the Chrome/Brave, even the Safari (Safari was second Explorer imho) so when I see these projects such as Arc I would just like to say to the Firefox team, hey guys maybe here is the opportunity to get some users back, imho it's mostly just about the UI layout.
I am unaware of any differences in iOS layout, isn't Firefox just a skin over Safari there? But doesn't it have its own UI? It's be weird if it were to not be reminiscent of other Firefox instances, no?
Uhm... This looks ugly and unusable. How is this seen as a good thing?
Interesting how Lemmy interprets mentions. I guess it wasn't planned to have this show up in the Firefox Lemmy community, but the software decided differently.

I’m with you. I understand some people find the current Firefox UI enough for their necessities. However, that doesn’t mean everyone thinks the same. Mozilla should think about a redesign of Firefox.
I used Arc for two months, at the beginning was really annoying, but later I got the point, and it has some good features (split view, hover sidebar…)
What I couldn’t stand for, was the idea of using Chromium. I felt terrible. Now, I switched to Firefox again, but this time using a Japanese fork called Floorp. The developer behind it did I pretty good job, I figured out, and I have something very close to Arc’s UI, of course, with some limitations.
