I am a hoarder in many aspects of my life, and online browsing isn't an exception. I collect tabs like a corvid collects shiny things. Add my uncontrollable need to customize to this and you create my online persona: a veteran internet user with many itches to scratch.
I discovered Arc a little over a year ago but only recently started using it as my default browser (approx a month). Y'all... it has changed my life. Its features make browsing insanely easy and intuitive, and I'm never going back to anything else on the browser market.
*I'll be dropping some of their short and sweet youtube vids throughout the following rec so you can see some of the features for yourselves.
Arc has fully reinvented how browser tabs work and, imo, they have landed in the sweet spot for how they should work. What do you mean you automatically archive and clean up my tabs? Also... I can have an actually intuitive tab hierarchy? I can create various browsing spaces, have different login profiles for each one and seamlessly navigate between them all? I can close my pinned tabs without actually losing the pin?
Other features make browsing just extremely easy and fun. I can hover and preview search results as I google? I can fully customize how my browser and content look like, and remove annoying ads and elements out of a website forever? Like, I literally zapped the new twitter logo and subscription buttons out of the site and have never had to lay eyes over an X logo ever again.
Best part of all, the team behind it is passionate af. They're constantly updating Arc with new features, they actively listen to feedback from their users, and their marketing is insanely cool.
Arc is insanely good and takes away tons of stressed caused by infinite-tab-syndrome. I highly recommend.
It's currently available for both Mac and Windows.
The mobile app (Arc Search) is insane, but it's currently available on iOS only. I'm waiting patiently for it to launch on Android, but I've used it on my friends' iPhones and it's super powerful. You can literally pick your phone up like you're having a call and search with your voice and the browser will search and reply to you.
This is not a paid message, btw. I'm just really passionate about tech and in my 15+ years of using the internet andΒ all other mainstream browsers (Explorer, Edge, Safari, Chrome, FireFox, Opera), I can truly get behind a product, and company, like this.
Get on it. It won't disappoint!

you should not be able to give a song a "score" per-say
I mean in certain cases yea but it just stigmatizes music from being listened to because one critic just didn't like it!
i think there should be a sort of sticker system:
- gold star if you loved it
- garfield sticker if it was nice
- thumbs up if it was good
- encouraging "keep trying!" sticker if it was meh
- sad face if you didn't like it
- you decide the sticker if you hated it

i open it, wait for it to load (delayed gratification), swipe the top refs, like them, check out the accounts their from, might follow, see what the people i follow are posting, search up new music or something random (all on my own accord, no algorithm, no doomscrolling) find something actually cool that i bookmark/add to a list to check out (which i do check out), either leave the app satisfied or make a silly little post and then leave the app with no urge to keep scrolling or looking, happy with my time spent

everyone
you have NO business over there. NOTHING good coming out of there anymore.
instead try;
- active listening
- reading a damn book
- giving a shit about other people
- finding whimsy in everyday life
