Episode notes
Browsers Split By AI, Trust, And Polishing
- Browsers are diverging between AI-first and privacy/utility-focused approaches.
- Matt, Niléane and Christopher weigh trust, UI polish, and cross-device support when choosing one.

- Check whether a browser supports your primary devices before switching.
- Christopher asks first: is the browser on the iPad? and treats that as a dealbreaker.

- It improves with pin tabs, side tabs and tab groups but forces AI features into workflows.
