A short note for those who stumble upon @phibrowser while browser shopping, perhaps because @arcinternet decided to go radio silent in December 👇 Phi is NOT a vibe-coded piece of slop. Nor is it a one-person hobby project with no clear path to sustainability and an uncertain future. DRM playback (with Google's widevine module) is legitimately and natively supported. Try vibe-coding that. There are about 20 living souls behind the making of Phi. Phinomenon Inc. was founded in SF in 2025, following a $10M Series A raise. We're building for the long haul, and we're still hiring aggressively btw, check out our Jobs page if you fancy joining the madness. Code can be generated by agents, and we use the best ones out there. But taste cannot be prompted into existence. Neither can the thousand intricate little details, the thoughtful decisions, or the human craftsmanship that make a piece of software genuinely delightful to use. You can generate 1000 lines of code in seconds. Knowing which 10 lines shouldn't exist in the first place is another matter. Phinomenon is not interested in who you are, not what you browse, not what you search for at 2am in the morning, and certainly not the things you'd rather nobody knew about. That's your business, not ours. Our business is to build the best browser and AI tools we possibly can, and to earn your trust by making something worth using. We put this principle right at the top of our Privacy, and we mean every word of it. Privacy shouldn't be a premium feature, a marketing gimmick, or something you have to take our word for. Phi Browser is developed in the open. We take feedback seriously. We respond to GitHub issues with actual human beings typing on actual physical keyboards (an increasingly exotic concept in this industry). When something is broken, we try to fix it, and more often the fix makes it into the following week's release. No elaborate corporate theatre required. Phi browser is a living, breathing browser, built by people who give a 💩, and getting better with every release. We're not here to cash in on a trend, ship a shiny wrapper, and quietly disappear when the next shiny thing comes along. We're here to build something that lasts. (for receipt, by the way, the last thing I built is @FydeOSHQ 11 years ago and it is still kicking) & we'd love for you to be part of it.

I put unfinished tasks live in my bookmarks now. my tabs are only for what I'm working on I think bookmarks and tabs should work as one system. manage both and you stay on top of unfinished work while your browser stays tidy. Do you still use bookmarks?

Using preview mode in @phibrowser rly made my X exploration in Laptop so smooth. Whenever I see some interesting profiles, I would press Shift + Click the person's profile link, and it would appear in preview mode, then I could either: Cmd + O to open it Esc or Cmd W to close it Press the split view to split it Power browser user is essentially to learn those short cuts and small features that empowers your daily browsing workflows

Made a "full" feature walkthrough video showcasing what we have built for Phi Browser so far; but the app and feature development outpaced my video post-production 🫠 I was hoping to contain it within 20mins, no luck. The basics will still make sense👇 youtu.be/Y7EKQYMLW60
