i just remembered this project: https://floorp.app/en/
japanese fork of firefox with lots of features and proper vertical tabs apparently. i’m looking forward to trying it.
tell me about it! literally the ONE thing keeping me from FF at the moment. vertical tabs are too vital to my workflow at this point to sacrifice.
super excited about the future of Orion!!
the vertical tabs are fantastic but can’t stand using MS. then i discovered Arc and never looked back. lots of super cool novel ideas coming out of that team. it is based on chromium though. but it’s sooo niiiice :/
interesting! looks pretty cool, i’ll give it a shot later. thanks! something just feels morally wrong to me about actively using a chromium based browser, it’s always in the back of my mind lmao. we are all part of the problem.
the vertical tabs <3
now i use Arc though which has been amazing. i don’t think i can ever go back to horizontal tabs. i love Firefox so much, its just missing a good implementation of this one feature that i can’t live without! there are some extensions but it’s not even close to the native implementation of it on edge and arc browser especially
Yes but it currently wastes a lot of electricity and doesn’t charge the phone as fast in general.
I remember that! Pretty sure I tried it out on my Nexus 5. It was cool but even then it seemed an impossible hill to climb. Looks like it was forked into a feature phone OS that’s maintained to this day!
Framework seems to be a pretty awesome company. So happy to see them delivering on their word.
I was thinking the same thing. I think I would have done it to see what happened lol
this is gold lmao
+1 for Caddy
works fine for me on Memmy iOS
Looks like some fantastic work so far! This is exactly the type of app I’m looking for. I’d love to test it out once it gets to that phase :)
lmao why did this make me laugh so much
“I personally failed at following my own recommendation several times this week and I feel bad about it.” hahahah
Thanks for the recommendation! There’s so many apps in the works, I love it. I have a whole folder lol. I’ve found Thunder and Mlem to be the most overall functional so far but I’m definitely gonna check out wefwef.
I encourage everyone to go see what’s out there as far as third party apps. Fuck it, try them all!
edit: wow you weren’t kidding! it really feels extremely similar to apollo while managing to be a web app?? pretty impressive. although i’d prefer a native version…
FUCK /U/SPEZ
yup vertical tabs are the dealbreaker for me, edge got me hooked. Floorp is a fork that has it, haven’t used it a ton yet but i keep hearing more about it. I’ve been using Arc which i’m enjoying.
