I need to stick AI in something and sell it…

[–] JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago

I haven't been following Atlassian recently and was wondering if you were just tossing that out there... But no, that is literally their plan:

This deal is a bold step forward in reimagining the browser for knowledge work in the AI era,” Mike Cannon-Brookes, Atlassian’s CEO and co-founder, said in a statement.

“Together, we’ll create an AI-powered browser optimized for the many SaaS applications living in tabs – one that knowledge workers will love to use every day,” he added.

the enshittified company bought the enshittified company to form a megazord of enshittification

In what ways has Atlassian enshittified?

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

It started shitty, so I'm not sure enshittification is really the issue with it.

The UX is appallingly bad, their interpretation of agile development is in no way agile, integrations are inept, functionality is shit, and their whole paradigm seems to be based on user disempowerment and top-down corporate control.

For get about investment funded proprietary software and choose FOSS instead.

Have you tried it? How has your experience been?

[–] monogram@feddit.nl 6 points 1 week ago

Yes I use it daily, honestly I’m surprised people still use a browser that’s not based of FF what with ublock origin being limited by chrome and the obvious proprietary-investment-to-rug-pull Silicon-Valley-economics of the browser company

They had a browser a lot of knowledge workers loved to use. Then they abandoned it to make an AI agent browser using ChatGPT, month before ChatGPT announced it was making its own browser. Instead of returning to Arc they shelved it regardless as their myopic CEO sought a buyer dumb enough to buy “something-something-AI-something-10x-something.”

Yeah I know ):

I was looking fowards to arc on linux coming out at some point, now I use zen, it's better than arc ever was.

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

No tab syncing has kept me hostage to Arc on my workstation.

[–] puppinstuff@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

When tab folders finally landed in Zen Browser I just took a morning and copied them all in manually. So glad I did.

syncing as in between devices or?

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Syncing between windows. I separate my projects based on spaces and sometimes I need to have multiple windows open. Having a synced tabs state is a huge boon for my productivity tasks.

[–] Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

I'm in the discord and the dev has said it's the next thing they're going to add

[–] CatDogL0ver@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Never heard of the browsers until now

[–] dinckelman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

What a colossal waste of money. The only other company i'd wish this upon would be HP

[–] goatinspace@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

There are people that can burn 610M
