How many featured tools have you used? I have personally gone down the rabbit hole with almost all of them and used dozens. 🐇

TOOLS
Browse through the browsers
Did you know there’s more to internet life than Chrome (and Safari and Firefox)? And no, I don’t mean Edge so don’t stop reading.
Whether you’re looking to improve your focus and productivity while on the internet with a fully customizable workspace, browse in private without your data leaking everywhere, or just go more minimal, there’s a browser for your specific use case.
Plus, they all block ads and trackers.
Here are today’s insanely cool finds for you to browse…
Arc — Experience a calmer, more personal internet. Arc aims to be the web’s OS, completely reinventing how we think about and use browsers. Tabs are launchable apps, spaces and profiles help you organize and view everything in one window, your browsing is powered by AI, and there’s a beautiful themeable UI.
Sidekick — Like a supercharged productivity browser. Use its highly efficient take on a split view to do multiple things at once, mute notifications across all apps and messengers at once, and easily jump between different accounts within one app without logging out. Plus, it’s 3x faster than Chrome.
Min — A fast, minimal browser. Tabs take up less space, pages you haven’t looked at in a while fade out, and Focus Mode hides your other tabs to prevent you from getting distracted. It’s designed to be fast and use less battery power, so you don't have to worry about finding a charger.
Toby — Like a browser, you can have grouped tabs open and save your browsing sessions. However, Toby’s main purpose is to help your team collaborate easier by centralizing all your documents, designs, project boards and other important resources in team workspaces.
Pinokio — A open source browser that lets you install, run, and programmatically control any application. Pinokio takes inspiration from how traditional computers work — it is a comprehensive platform for running and automating any application.
SigmaOS — Like Arc and Sidekick, SigmaOS bets your browser can function like an OS, and it has many of the same features. The main thing that sticks out to me about SigmaOS is that it can simplify any website into a short interactive summary that you can ask questions about.
Vivaldi — A browser with unrivaled customization options and built-in browser features for better performance, productivity, and privacy. Super fast (because portal windows!!) and mix-and-matchable settings. Also… so many tab management features for those of you who never close them: from vertical tab menu to two-level tab stacks to tab tiles.

These cannabis gummies keep selling out in 2023
If you've ever struggled to enjoy cannabis due to the harshness of smoking or vaping, you're not alone. That’s why these new cannabis gummies caught our eye.
Mood is an online dispensary that has invented a “joint within a gummy” that’s extremely potent yet federally-legal. Their gummies are formulated to tap into the human body’s endocannabinoid system.
Although this system was discovered in the 1990’s, farmers and scientists at Mood were among the first to figure out how to tap into it with cannabis gummies. Just 1 of their rapid onset THC gummies can get you feeling right within 5 minutes!
