    I loved Arc so much when it came out. I had been using vertical tabs on Firefox for years, via the treestyle tabs extension. But Arc felt like a breath of fresh air in 2022. Native vertical tabs. Air Traffic Control to open specific links in specific profiles. Swish UI. Unfortunately it's yet another Chromium-based browser, and I hated to make Firefox lose another user to Google's web engine. But at the time, that was a sacrifice I was willing to make to experience a "better Internet" or whatever.
But I'm done with it. It's been death by a thousand cuts. I'm going to spend quite a long time explaining all my annoyances with Arc, and link to a few guides on switching back to Firefox.
Air Traffic Control was great initially. Links matching Jira/Github etc were configured to open automatically in my work profile. I kinda wished manually configured URLs like that would open in a little Arc window, but instead they'd bring me to the main window. No big deal I guess. But anything not manually configured would

    For MacOS, I use https://sindresorhus.com/velja to open github and jira links in my work browser, and all other links in my personal browser.
The only issue is that I'm using different Firefox profiles, and Velja doesn't support this. (No similar app does). So I had to get a bit tricky. The Velja FAQ makes a suggestion, so here's how I achieved it:

Make your work profile the default in Firefox.
Create a new folder in the Applications folder, called FirefoxPersonal.app
The folder should contain:

                Import Arc history in Firefox
              
          
    No good reason why this had to be so tricky:

Install Export Chrome History extension in Arc
Export history to JSON. Choosing the forever option does actually export ALL the history in Arc
Install History Export for firefox
Optional: Export Firefox history, to see what the json looks like
Make the Arc history match what firefox expects. I used this javascript to convert it:

arcHistory.map(item =&gt; {
