What is this "in-place window switching" feature you mentioned?
Its an enhancement on Firefox's original tab groups UI where you don't need to spawn windows to navigate to and act on groups of tabs
Same here. Super happy with Arc. It's very well designed. It solves a lot of annoyances I had with profile management in other browsers
To be fair, Safari also has MacOS-native vertical tabs, in tab groups, that sync group state across the full ecosystem, and do the "in window switching" when you change groups.
// I pay for Kagi, and use Orion for certain extensions.
Yes, it is fairly straightforward and easy enough to use with the Tab Group switcher in the menu, but sadly it does not allow you to nest tabs in a tree manner (probably it was decided it was a power user feature).

I wanted to try Arc, but somehow can’t get past the login screen. Support from them has not been very responsive yet.
Orion is about to release in-place window switching that sorta matches up with Arc's behavior, but I still prefer Arc as the command palette UX, as well as being able to use back/forward mouse buttons to switch 'in-place' windows, is just the superior affordance.
