I’m ashamed I fell for Arc and even recommended it to my friends, as someone whose job is exactly this but with Android apps :(


They claim so much and their browsers' code is 100% proprietary so it's impossiblen to verify their lies. This is what triggered the bullshit detector in my head

Far from me to defend Arc (I dislike it for several reasons) but it’s based on Chromium so it’s far from 100% proprietary. Don’t Edge, Vivaldi, and even Chrome have proprietary layers on top of the open-source Chromium?


Vivaldi's inhouse UI code isn't open source, but is visible for users to verify AFAIK.
