Agreed. I don't use a Mac anymore, but I've been hearing about this browser and how excellent it is, but their website does such an awful job of conveying anything that I'm surprised anyone ever started using it. Actually, to give them some credit, they seem to have redone the site somewhat, and it now actually has screenshots. Last time I visited it barely had a description of the product, so I guess they're headed in the right direction.

>I've been hearing about this browser and how excellent it is

from real people, or probably-paid articles on tech blogs?

The Youtuber MKBHD has a podcast[0] where they have mentioned that many in their office has switched over to it. I'm not sure I quite understand their enthusiasm for it, but I don't think they're paid shills.

Are you sure it is not product placement?

the venn diagram of people who say Arc is good, and people who say NordVPN is good, is a circle.

maybe not everybody who says arc is good is being paid to say that. but they are all people who accept money to say things like "arc is good". MKBHD included.

I‘ve used browsers since they first appeared, pretty much all of them, and I love Arc.
