It&#x27;s kind of hilarious to me that the OS &amp; browser are in such competition.<p>I&#x27;d love to see a desktop wm that tries to handle tabs the same as windows. Android Chrome did this &amp; I really wish it was still an option. Having one set of tools to navigate across workspaces makes so much sense. We just haven&#x27;t ever investigated or pursued the kind of high-radix desktop&#x2F;wm&#x2F;shell where we could actually survive it.<p>Really enjoy the quick review of Arc. I confess it&#x27;s been a while since I&#x27;ve had an extension to put tabs on the left.<p>Hey like... Is that possible in extensions with WebExtensions V2 or MV3? It&#x27;s not is it? The browser has some extensibility but retains ultimate &amp; total power over the overall experience, only carves out narrow affordances. Can&#x27;t wait to hack the shit out of this modest tyrannic anti-choice some day! WebBrowserExtensions v1 here we go!
