What makes you different? The URL throws me into a login screen, so I have no idea nor incentive

Which browser alternative has the equivalent of "Little Arc"s? Damn, I've been looking all over.
Sadly, the LLM decided 'a hand' or 'a tiny horse' both did not fit today's prompt: 'Name something that would fit in your pocket', which I find.. unoriginal

'Guess again'
I find it naive to hope you can get alignment through prompting, as we all know models can't even stick to a one-pager even if it's the only thing you ask it to do.
You must love all the spam you're getting with a catch-all!

Several things work for me:

- switching between spaces switches my mental space too. I read and scan website differently based on what space I'm in. Like switching between tasks. Might be personal.

- "Little Arc" - just a window that opens in the view you're in, on any other app, and disappears after a set time, really is great for me to quickly look something up and have it be gone.

- Vertical tabs instead of bookmark folders work better for me as it opens the link "within" the folder, instead of a new tab

Not saying this is only available in Arc / Zen, but this is what makes it work for me.
