thanks for hunting horse @gabe <3 hello product hunt! i’m pascal pixel, designer and coding person. last time i was here, i launched a clock, but this time i really went all in… i built a browser! two years ago i met someone who was building a command palette extension for chrome because, as he put it, “tabs suck”. naturally, i asked, “why not just fix tabs?” and he replied, “pfff, how can anyone fix tabs?” …and that's when a possible solution, trails, hit me like lightning i couldn’t explain it to anyone no matter how hard i tried (still difficult), so i just started building an mvp. i honestly thought it’d take two months to pull off and launch on product hunt, but here we are two years later i'm mostly building it for myself, but turns out a whole bunch of other people like it too. so that's really rewarding and it feels like i'm making something useful for others [humblebrag 9000]

Horse came up on my Twitter (X) feed after the news that the folks behind Arc were pivoting to build another browser. Seems pretty interesting and like a lightweight version of Arc that could be a good alternative for power users.

I've used Horse for the last 4 months, switching over from Arc (before it was cool 😂). I switched because (1) I love vertical tabs (2) For all the shiny features of Arc, I found the spaces more overwhelming than they gave me a feeling of organisation and being in control. Arc is a lot of fun little ideas put together but eventually it felt like less than the sum of its parts. I really wanted a simple browser where I can can organise myself around my projects easily so I can be more intentional, and Horse 🐴 is that for me. It's early days so it doesn't do everything, and isn't for everyone. I know Pascal has a million comments asking for full chrome extension support to come sooner! But if you are borderline ADHD or someone who saves a lot of pages and wants to get their projects done, I really recommend it. Excited to see where this ends up 🚀

@jonnymiles this review/comment is making me want to try Horse even more now. I'm still on Arc and I personally do love Spaces. before I just had multiple Chrome windows open with different profiles. The full extension support is a biiitttt of a turn off, so might try it after a couple more releases. Thanks for sharing!

All this time we were told that browsers needed to be made by huge teams with millions of $ in VC funded, and the legions of influencer hype that comes with it – but then I used Horse and realized that was a lie. Lol but seriously, Horse is a great browser that really excels if you're the kind of person that thinks of your tabs as series of web of pages grouped around research themes (aka Trails). In this case 'research' doesn't only mean scholorly academia, but also tasks like buying the perfect blender, or figuring the error message on some code that won't compile means.

I support anyone who takes the utterly infinitely complex task of trying to solve tab & link management :) I saw this on Twitter the other day as well! Love the concept of Trails, definitely a unique way to manage the browsing experience. But on it's own I think it still leaves a lot of things to be solved. Curious to see how it develops overtime. All the best @pascalpixel

@owenfar a loooooot of work went into the linking logic, sadly the hardest part is always invisible, you probably know this better than most!

Pascal - what a lovely video. I'm totally hooked with your story and your product now! Question: does it integrate into Arc somehow? I'm liking many of its feature but would want to exchange the sidebar with yours. Would that be somehow possible?

Help me quit Chrome

I've been using @Google Chrome for years and honestly never thought much about changing. It just always seemed like the best and easiest option. Lately though, I've been feeling like maybe I'm missing out. Chrome doesn't feel like the no-brainer pick anymore, and I'm seeing more and more interesting browsers out there.

Currently, @Horse is my top pick. This is the one I'm most interested in trying out, but it also seems like a pretty different approach. I don't necessarily want my productivity to dip, but that may just be inevitable whenever switching.
