Arc browser is dead and I won’t miss it
The Browser Company has officially admitted what many of us suspected for a long time; Arc wasn’t the future of browsers. In a lengthy blog post, the company tried to put a polished spin on its decision to abandon Arc in favor of its new AI product, Dia. But let’s be honest here: Arc never lived up to the hype, and it’s baffling how much praise it received to begin with.
Sure, the tech press fawned over Arc like it was some kind of design breakthrough. But for anyone who actually tried to use it as their daily browser, the experience was clunky, confusing, and just not very good. It asked too much of users and gave back too little. Novelty for novelty’s sake is not innovation. And quite frankly, Arc proved that.
