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.

AMA w/ Maker of the Year, Pascal Pixel! (ノ°∀°)ノ⌒💫

you probably know me from horse browser, but i ve been tinkering with design and html since the game boy color first came out!
before i even learned to code, i was making wallpapers & windows xp themes trying to win "daily deviation" awards on deviantart. when i *did* learn to code i built a pok mon battle with jquery right after coding my first working rock-paper-scissors game just so i could do battles on my kindle. later, i designed poolside fm s (now poolsuite) iconic icons, launched johto mono (formerly pok mon-font ) on product hunt, and kept making weird & fun experiments with design + ux at their core
thanks to the power of ai, i went from building websites to building a browser. horse is built with electron, and we re currently pushing hard to get extension support merged with the hope that once that happens, we ll see a wave of other niche browsers that help so many people
i say "help", because i could never get anything done with normal browsers, until i made horse, and to my surprise, i found that it's because i have adhd, and horse also helps other people with adhd letting them switch topics, come back to things later, and actually follow up. i m currently working on getting recommendations from therapists who are seeing how much horse helps their clients
ask me anything why i made horse, what being a super cool guy feels like, or whatever else you re curious about!
i ll be around all day answering questions ( ` )
