Arc is no longer invite-only, although you still need an email to use it. Of course if you’re not cool with that you can use any random throwaway.
I don’t really see why I should be excited.
The browser is pretty I give them that, but I don’t see anything that makes it better. No mention of the engine, speed or comparison to other browsers.
If it was only this i’d give it a go but the main thing that makes me step away from this is the fact that The Browser Company is a for profit start up with a free product, and that arc is closed source. Because they have no apparent income source, I’m afraid (cross that, I’m absolutely sure) they’ll have to take some anti consumer decisions in the long run. Either by running ads, blocking ad-blockers, collecting data (even if they promise not to) etc. If they don’t do that, they will go bankrupt eventually (or go to shit like reddit/twitter) and then you have no open source codebase that people can continue to maintain.
I don’t see any future for arc. Please correct me if I missed something

I’ve seen a lot from arc and I can’t wait for it to release on windows/linux
Seeing it mentioned for the first time! Do you think it‘s better than Safari? Why? The design looks gorgeous!
Sweet! Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been on their waitlist for a few months, can’t wait to finally try it.
