This is sad news for the Arc faithful. If you're one of them, or if you’re looking for an alternative to the regular browsers like Safari and Chrome, all hope is not lost. Export your Arc data, and try out one of these Arc-like alternatives.
The Zen Browser is the best Arc alternative
Credit: Zen BrowserIt has the look and feel down to a T. Zen has the same vertical sidebar, with customizable workspaces and pinned tabs up top. And like Arc, Zen has mods that let you customize the browser's user interface (plus a ton of community-developed mods ready to go). Zen is also free to use, and it’s open-source. Cherry on top? There are no AI features. None. No upsells, no VPN, no schemes, nothing. It’s built on Firefox, and it has a privacy-first approach.
And yes, there is extension support: Anything that runs on Firefox will run here too. Firefox has most of the important extensions covered, and it’s the only major browser that still supports the full-scale uBlock Origin ad blocker (which works like a treat in Zen, too).
Vivaldi takes a maximalist approach to web browsing
Credit: VivaldiThere are tons of built-in features. It comes with an ad blocker and integrates with ProtonVPN for free, limited VPN access. You can add a free reader, email accounts, note-taking, and a calendar to the sidebar. Using the Web Panels feature, you can dock any website to the sidebar as well (this works well for media and messaging sites).
If you want to keep to a Chromium-based browser, but one that offers all the customization features you can think of, go for Vivaldi. At its core is a powerful, fast, and reliable browser that you can slowly remake to be your own.
Other alternatives to consider
Helium: Think of it as a minimalist version of Google Chrome. Same Chromium engine, but no Google tracker, no popups, ads, or extra features.
Quiche: If you were using Arc on iPhone or iPad, try using the Quiche browser, which is our favorite browser for the iPhone. It’s a tastefully designed independent browser, with a fully customizable layout.
