Good point, we'll fix this in the next update. p.s. fan of the work on replicache and of course chrome

I find the need to self-moderate at least as scary. Heaven forbid you say what you think with just morality in mind. Who even knows what is or isn't allowed in 2024?
I have never in my life thought “Gee, I might be banned for saying that,” but maybe I’m just a sheeple.
The comment may of been slightly off-the-cuff but for sure didn't incite "violence". This resulted in getting banned by Reddit admins and I've never been back on Reddit since.
After the shock wears off you realise that you really you don't miss reddit.

I don't see any issue with this? It makes sense to keep the accounts secure, and very few people will be coming up with passwords by hand; they'll be using the auto-generated ones from their browser (or from their 3rd-party password manager for the more HN-y types).

#85This is super impressive. Love the demo, especially the AI recall feature that deeplinks your files and @'s collaborators. This product feels like the obvious evolution of the digital workplace after the cloud. Is the plan to eventually integrate more native collaboration tools (Kanban boards, team password sharing, cloud file storage) after chat?

You are right. We came in letting hosts open experience stores in Airbnbs (try on an Oculus at a hosts home). Difficult to attribute our sales so we moved on. COVID hit and we had the itch to look at the browser in a different light. Building a browser seemed intimidating...but it was quarantine. Long story short, built a few different ideas and here we are :)
This is incredible, 5 years of not giving up, kudos. How big is your team and how did you make your money go this long?
We’ve always treated everything we do as an experiment. We’re not trying to keep anything alive for the sake of it.

#88So, despite being based on Chromium, there's no Linux builds? Would like to try this but me and my entire team uses Linux.
We have Ubuntu and Fedora users through Wine. Not ideal I know, but enough to try out unless you have a super custom Arch setup

I don't see what having an arch setup would have to do with running it through wine, but running your main browser under a heavy compatibility layer is practically unusable in my book. I need my browser to be able to be invoked in no more than a couple hundred milliseconds, while wine programs can sometimes take 5 to 10 seconds to launch.

#90Love to see a hack week project get this far. The timeline and signals features look awesome, and I can't wait to give this a try. Hope you also have thoughts (and a business model) for more private, ephemeral spaces - enabling short term collaboration, e.g. for freelance/remote/hack work.
