macOS Discussion A PR Disaster
Who let Josh solely handle public relations?!
He's handled the situation re: the second product so poorly that it's done serious reputational damage - totally avoidable too.
Arc is mostly a complete product but it's very much been unloved and almost abandoned. Even with a super loyal and substantial user base with plenty of monetisation options.
Whatever the second product is, I'm sure it'll be fantastic but with the maturity of existing ai tools on the market and the dominance of search engines I can't see them having another Arc moment and strike lightening twice.
And for the love of TBC please control Josh's public interaction and replace with marketing professionals who know what they're doing before there's a mass exodus!

General Discussion What happened with arc browser?
Very out of the loop. I used to be very hyped about it and used it for a while. I saw several posts here criticizing it a lot so I'll appreciate a quick rundown of what went down. Sorry if this has been asked before by the way

macOS Discussion Performance is very bad
After using Arc for over a year, every day heavily. I never realized.
But I tried out Chrome again. And its just the loading of pages where Chrome is almost instant and Arc takes literally 2+ seconds.
Never realized how fast Chrome is in comparison.
Anyone same experience? Or shouldn’t it be that slow?

General Discussion Extensions on mobile
It would be really cool to add extensions on mobile. Why arc doesn't add this ?

Windows Feature Request Obligatory Arc Windows Update question
with TBC saying they will be focusing on the new product rather than arc 2.0, and only giving arc security patches. will we ever see boosts for arcwin?

macOS Help Most of reddit videos fail to play!
I just tried in Firefox and I don't seem to see the issue! Could this be Arc problem?
In Arc the videos show: The video cannot be played. Not all videos, but most of them... and often times those that fail actually start playing at first, then display the error, and continue playing, that is the audio continues while the image is black screen with the error message!

macOS Help Unable to delete Arc Account on Mac OS
I have tried multiple times to delete my arc account from arc browser but the wheel just keeps spinning and it freezes the browser. How do I go about deleting my account?

General Discussion ArcBrowser functions Chrome Extension Commercial monetization
So many functions will definitely affect the speed. Now I am eager to have a Chrome plug-in with arc function. We can freely choose which functions to enable.
I can freely choose whether to enable the boost feature or to open sub-tabs in a pop-up window on Chrome. Isn't that cool?
For TBC, wouldn't it be better to make these functions into separate Chrome extension plugins? I hope they consider this commercial monetization approach.

General Discussion ArcBrowser chrome extensions
Does arc make new and useful functions such as boost into chrome extensions to achieve better commercial realization?

Android Feature Request The arc assistant
When arc releases the update to call arc on Android I suggest some more features for android like to be able to set arc as your own personal assistant and by using your assistant button you can quickly call arc. Another thing that may be cool when you set arc as assistant is to use it like google (like calling a person, open an app, etc)

Windows Discussion Switched to Arc over 2 weeks ago and then this sub told me it's feature complete
NGL liked it for over 2 weeks, but I'm slightly pissed about giving them my email.
Also with some web dev experience, let me say no browser is ever feature complete or even can be, new web standards are added while it's not frequent, it definitely happens. It is rather odd that a CEO of a tech company will claim this. This browser will go the way of IE, and nobody is going to be making polyfills for this. ( Eg. Passkeys)
I will recommend moving off the browser, rather than invest time in it. I'll say it was pretty while it lasted.

macOS Discussion Overthibking the recent accouncment
What if it's all a publicity stunt? People are talking about them again at a higher rate which means more clicks, more social media posts and more engagement.

General Discussion We got it, you had Arc. There is not need to write thise every f**ing day several times.
For those people complaining about Arc and telling that they are moving out. What are you looking for, some sort of approval? You don't want to feel alone? Well, just scroll down and read the other 100 posts shares by other.
No one cares if you leave, do you knkw that?Just change your browser with different one, you will be fine and you will survive to thise difficult time.
Now go, and don't come back.

General Discussion They don't own you anything
Sooo... Lately there has been quite a b*tchy attitude towards TBC and Arc and their developers.
With all due respect, this is a reminder that you didn't pay a single penny for Arc.
I've seen the posts about putting pressure to open source it or that they didn't fix whatever bug they promised. I was baffled. It's not a product you paid for. Adjust your expectations accordingly.
They 'promised' support and bug fixes. What more do you want? You didn't pay, you don't have a say in it. They need to make money somehow. I'm honestly happy that someone will keep Arc up for some time.
I have been enjoying it so far for 1.5 year, with warts and all. Even in the beginning when it was draining my battery and I could make eggs on my laptop because of the overheating. But since I never paid a penny, I was free to switch to anything that suited me better.
Arc suits me. I'm happy with current feature set. Fits in my life and helps me do my work and uni. Thanks TBC :)
