One of zen's killer features is the compact mode imo. It hides the sidebar by default and displays it on hover. You can also enable this for the top bar too, really cool on smaller screens or when giving presentations
@@ratio6677 bro it can be hidden, and shows up on hover bcs i use it (vertical tabs), and as per compact mode it will get sooner or later as its chromium based, and chrome has started testing it
i used to use qutebrowser for a while because of that vim-like keybinding. After a while, it's clear that the browser lacks a lot of feature. Now, i think i'm good with just using Vimium extension.
I'm loving Zen but there's one thing I'm missing, the workspaces should be isolated from one another. I know I can use containers for this purpose, and I do, but it sucks having to chose which container to open for every new tab
You can configure websites to open in a specific container by default. This setting resets with a new browser installation, but once configured, it will automatically open that way. I’ve set it up this way for my work and personal accounts to keep them separate. For example, anything I open related to Microsoft admin panels defaults to my work profile, while sites like TH-cam open in my personal profile container. Additionally, you can enable Firefox Sync to carry this configuration over to any new browser installations. On the first load of a page, it will give you the option to always open it in that container or just for that one time.
the only reason I want this is the spilt/grid screen. alas, none of the keyboard shortcuts work on my macos. none. i'll just have to put Zen back on the shelf and try again in 6 months
i have been using it for about a week, it is cool but it's really not that crazy, it's practically just a beautified firefox with sidebery, with some sprinkles on top like split and grid view and whatnot...
Tried it out via Flatpak on my Kubuntu machine. It does feel faster and lighter than FF. There are a lot of nice directions these folks are going with the UI. It's still pre-beta quality in a lot of ways though. Splitting the view kind of works. Mostly, it feels like a proof of concept. Can't resize them, or really even decide which tabs might go into which split. Controls aren't quite where you might expect them to be. Like the tab listing that's not near where the tabs are. That aside, I certainly hope they get some of these details worked out. Looks like the start of something that could be a serious contender.
@@zaskaf2 If Microsoft didn't put all that bloat and kept messing with my settings and resetting it to their defaults at times, I probably wouldn't have left! Edge has most of the functionality I need in a browser. Right now my current browser is Mercury which is essentially Thorium Firefox.
While side bar is a good idea, why so I need the top bar? So used to Firefox, could not find a way to hide sidebar or top bar [guessing only in F11] ....
For those working with web dev are ya'll using firefox based browser cause i've had a few issues go into prod in the start as i was'nt using chrome and the behaviors were very different on both.
Downloaded with brew just now to try it out. None of the keyboard shortcuts work on MacOS. Couldn't intuitively drag and move the settings button. It hesitated to load every web page I typed in. Maybe it's not mainstream for MacOS yet.
I come from using firefox, and I prefer it for its privacy, extensions/add-ons store, and customizability. I tried switching to arc, but I didn't like that it's chromium based... zen is the perfect middle ground that I've wanted from a browser for a long time! The whole reason I was looking for a new browser is because firefox doesn't support side tabs, at least not right now, and not natively. I also love the workspaces. I'm sure the container tabs in firefox are plenty similar, but I like the ease of use of Zen's Workspaces.
For me the biggest incentive to switch from base Firefox would be full customizability of keybindings. For example, let me rebind the new tab key or the find in page key! Does Zen have this kind of flexibility?
Thank you. I will consider it. I might use it for when I want to test Firefox compatibility. But, for me (and you as well I think) I can just go back and forth between a tab/stack layout in i3 and the regular tiled layout to get two tabs side by side.
Will you publish a video about zellij setup? I was trying to implement some things for go testing but i can't figure out one moment so i would like to see your config one more time
Why is the default layout on the left? It needs to be on the right. The right side of the screen tends to have nothing on it yet everybody puts things on the left side of the screen so that if you click on something then text gets covered up
I've had some ptsd from Brave tabs on the right. When you hover your cursor on the tabs on the right there, the tab bar opens up to show the details, and the point where your cursor originally is, is replaced by the cross button to close the tab. So if you accidentally click it, the tab just.. closes. Very bad ui design.
Brio what? sometime i start to think that this browser trying to copy edge browser. the workspace, the blue line when you go into split mode view, the vertical tabs. and then it showed you the url on top of screen when using fullscreen mode. at this point every vertical tabs browser is just a worse version of EDGE.
I'm usually pretty hesitant about swapping browsers (especially with the bugginess of Arc on Windows), I am super excited to see a project this promising in the Alpha that supports Linux and aids my Arc-minimal-style-itch
Zen is certainly promising but not quite there yet. On the example of two side-by-side panes, they could not be resized even at the time I tried it. Grid layout I did not manage to even get going. On the Mac I had to change around a bunch of shortcuts as default ones did not seem to work - completely messing them up eventually. But then there was no way to reset the shortcuts to defaults in the settings. I will keep an eye on Zen, but so far it is nowhere near Arc (on the Mac, by the way😁)
I’ve been using SigmaOS browser and have it configured to work with vim bindings. It uses Safari under the hood so it is very fast. I will give this one a fair shot though.
Ctrl-alt-v did not work for me, it would split the tab, but I could not open anything in the empty half. How do I do this? I saw that one can crtl-click two tabs and then open them in a split, but that is not quite the workflow.
aw, it didn't see my firefox to import from.. I guess because it itself is firefox, but maybe using a different profile or something I can probably export and import I'm guessing, though couldn't find anything about that quickly.
Ah I could just login with my firefox account(s).. Great! lol and I already had tree style tab (which puts the tabs on the side in a tree), now I have 2 columns of tabs :D
THERE IS NO WAY LMAO,i know zen for a while now but i never thought of using it, installed it two days ago and not even the day after this vid comes out
@reduxflakes before Firefox was redesigned, we had Tab Mix Plus addon for managing tabs. It was amazing. Actually, one of the reasons I jumped off Firefox is because tabs became unmoddable.
It has nice and consistent UI but i dont see much utilitarian value in vertical tabs since im so use to horizontal tabbing. As someone that often has my tiling window manager split into 2 vertical screens I would argue that the vertical real estate is more important then horizontal
Especially those features you are mentioning is already in popular browsers like ms edge / chrome (split view, vertical tabs, grouping them, bar with favourite apps,.....) What i would raise mainly in browsers like this one is privacy....I would change to this kind of browsers from leaders only for this one particular reason....other features are in edge or chrome extremely fast after any other browser create some new cool feature, so features are mostly not the reason to migrate all data And last thing really important for me in choosing browser is multiplatform support and synchronization between devices...this is where most of really nearly perfect browsers are failing :)
Watching the video, I thought I could love Zen, BUT it seems there's no mobile app for it and I really need one since I do lots of work using my tablet and phone. :(
I switched from Floorp (I use vertical tabs on that) and in practice, they are not the same. Zen feels more polished and snappy even in its alpha state. Sure, Floorp is more customizable in many ways but it feels many of the features are "glued" in a hacky way.. or atleast it feels that way.
@@cahva2I’m using floorp as a daily driver and yeah, it does look like most features (mainly workspaces) are just glued together. I had to edit my workspaces file many times to get them back because they just disappear sometimes
I say I use arch btw even tho its just my gf's steam deck sometimes. But thats technically arch based variant. Yes I know, a programmer with a gf so it must be fake.
I just discovered it as well. Looking forward to seeing the progress they can make. It's already better than vanilla FF for sure, but I feel like it wants to be Arc and I can't wait for that....or for Arc to come to Linux....either or lol.
This looks pretty slick. I've tried Firefox multiple times and always have had issues with ram usage and performance issues with TH-cam (which might be Google's doing). I'm looking at trying this out but, is their security good? I've seen a few mixed comments about that.
It's true that we have more horizontal real estate than vertical on modern screens, but web pages flow from top to bottom. Scrolling vertically is a much more natural action and horizontal screen space ends up being much more valuable as a result. It's still subjective, I see why people would like the horizontal tabs and I'm sure those few little pixels aren't making anything too cramped on big displays though.
you also have compact mode which just makes everything full page. no tabs on the left nor url bar on top. you would only see them on hover and the rest of the time you just have full screen realstate
I like the idea of having more vertical space by putting the tabs on the left or right. But in practice it has a lot of issues. Either you have only icons, but then if you have multiple pages with the same favicon, you can't distinguish them visually. But if you have a wider tab bar that can display the title of each tab, that means as long as you have only 2-3 tabs open all the space below them will be completely wasted. Then again, arguably most sites "waste" space anyways by only being displayed as a column that fills about 60-70% of the screen's width, such as the TH-cam page you might be looking at right now... Ah all this agonizing over a few more pixels that will never make a difference :D
@@kuma8030 Mmh, yes but then you'd have to switch each time by pressing a key combination, isn't that annoying as well? Anyways I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt and trying it out right now. Always fun to try out new "toys". But it seems the split panes can't be resized ... :(
What kind of BS is this? There are a ton of browsers for linux. It's not just Chrome and Firefox. Not only that, but Zen browser is just a Firefox branch. So it's sheer nonsense to say you were stuck with either Chrome or firefox, then say Zen is your new alternative. How much is Zen paying you for this scam?
@@adrymateoramon7087 "better" maybe a strong word. But anyway brave uses ublock origin (a fork) under the hood with their own additions.

No thanks. Personally, I don't use wide screen monitors and the two main things mentioned: vertical tabs & splitting one window into 2 panes doesn't sound helpful since two panes on a 13 inch work laptop ( thankfully, I don't want a 15 inch or higher, it's too wide and cumbersome) would be too cramped for a browser. My personal laptop is a 15 inch laptop since I couldn't get a 13 inch for that kind of Linux laptop. I wish it was a 13 inch.
