   So many bugs to fix

   The idea of a productivity based browser is great but since this browser is still new, it has trouble with a lot of things. Sometimes it doesn't open a new tab when i try, sometimes web apps don't open, and overall its not a smooth experience that i could recommend to people

   🏁 Competitors: Vivaldi, Mozilla Firefox, Brave

   👍 Pros:    Everything you need is in the homepage|Looks really pretty|Focuses on productivity|Has control over ram usage and data|A search option that searches all throughout your history, bookmarks, web and everything

   👎 Cons:    A buggy performance|Short term freezes|Might need some time getting used to the web apps

• Making Twitter likes/bookmarks backup tool as side quest of offline first browser (that saves everything)

  I've been developing frontend in-memory graph DB / state manager for 1) replication 2) incremental sync 3) fast rendering (without VDOM/react). Used in https://seesu.me & https://meetsidekick.com (where I was 1st engineer). Source: over 1 year ago

• Making Twitter likes/bookmarks backup tool as side quest of browser that saves everything

  To make snapshot it takes current state of DOM, current state of styles (to capture CSS-in-JS stuff), take resources like font/images from network storage (Chrome Dev Tools protocol) and saves it as HTML on disk.

• But can your browser do this? :)

  Just so you know Sizzy exists as well and has been around for a while so you would competing with them as well. Source: 5 months ago

• Simulate your website across many devices all in the same browser tab! Proof of concept for a micro saas I'm building in public :)

  I would like to introduce you to Sizzy. Source: about 1 year ago

• Chromium browser that doesn't constantly add itself to login items?

  Sizzy is the only exception I've found to date, but while being a nice for development it's not useful as an everyday browser. Source: over 1 year ago

• Quick questions, How do you guys make websites for IPhone? How do you test your site on Safari? Do you guys download all the browsers under the sun?

  I am personally debating on buying this eventually https://sizzy.co. Right now I use the built in Safari tool for testing on multiple iOS devices, but this will allow me to test on multiple device types. Source: over 1 year ago

• If it goes somewhere, it’s a link. If it does something, it’s a button

  There's also Sizzy (https://sizzy.co). It's available standalone, but it's also included with a Setapp subscription (https://setapp.com — Mac app subscription service). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
