Sidekick, на мой взгляд, самый быстрый и эргономичный браузер. Было бы здорово, если бы ваша команда сделала русскую локализацию и разработала мобильное приложение. Спасибо большое за работу!

@mnikolay1905, thanks a lot for your feedback! The mobile app is on our backlog for the near future. In terms of a mobile version, do you have any specific use cases in mind?

What a cool browser. I was used multiple browsers for this but looks like Sidekick can be the only one now. Congrats on the launch!

been a sidekick user for about the past year now, and it's awesome! it's really the little things that have turned me into a fan :] - the lower RAM usage, the good ole chrome familiarity, the app sidebar, the ad blocking... like c'mon what's not to love? congrats on the 2.0 launch! looking forward to the continued growth of sidekick! ps. if there's a way to cycle through tabs (not just jump back and forth btwn the last two) that would be awesome. i kinda miss that from the other browsers...

hey @josh_yim1, so happy to hear about your experience using Sidekick! Do you have a Mac or a PC? As a Mac user, I use a shortcut I inherited from Google Chrome - [Left] Cmd + [Right] Option + ← or →. You can cycle through the entire tabstrip with it
Josh Yim
@krbnkv oh heyyyyyy! you know what? ctrl + tab is working to cycle through the tabs (latest first). i'm on mac, but i wasn't able to get your shortcut to work (prob bc i have those as a universal shortcut to manage my windows 😅) but i'm digging the tab cycle :] gotta love sidekick even more now!

The product looks promising but I'm reluctant to download as I'm not sure what exactly it does? It is desktop browser or web browser? How it will benefit us more than what you already have masOS?
Yegor Korobeynikov
hey @psychic_sheela, great questions! Could you please describe how desktop and web browsers differ from your perspective? If you understand what OS is, then Sidekick is a WebOS. Sidekick interconnects all the work you do online, including web apps, documents, messengers, extensions, and search results. By connecting these siloed apps and other data pieces, it makes them work together as one. Does this make sense to you?

@krbnkv There is a thread on reddit under r/browser check that out https://www.reddit.com/r/browser...

Wow, well impressed by the idea. It’s a much needed improvement on what’s been offered so far by an incumbent. Great to see this product making further progress.

Best browser ever.

Been a user ever since the v1 launch. What I love: sessions (this is a lifesaver), RAM management, shortcuts for almost anything. I even wrote a article about why I switched from Chrome to Sidekick: https://abeykoshyitty.com/why-i-... Cannot recommend Sidekick enough! :)
Yegor Korobeynikov
@abeykoshyitty thanks for the feedback! Is there anything we can do to make Sidekick better?

I've been using Sidekick for the past year or so, and it's hands-down by far the best browser I've used. Multiple sessions in particular helps me stay focused on the task in hand, and gives me a place to store sites I come across whilst doing a different type of work. I'm looking forward to giving version 2.0 a spin.

I have been using Sidekick for around a year. It's been a lifesaver in my work. 1. Caching works perfectly - at any given time I have over 80-90 tabs open, which would be a nightmare in Chrome (you can circumvent the issue with some Chrome extensions, but their quality has been questionable in my experience). 2. Sidekick's side menu allows you to access all of the web apps you use daily without a need to dive into the browser's tabs. Moreover, you can have several login sessions (with different accounts) in the same app at the same time, easily switching between them. Microsoft Teams, anybody? There are other browsers that might do the trick, but Sidekick's quality has been outstanding. The only downside I could find was some Chrome extensions are not migrated perfectly when installing Sidekick (you need to reinstall them) and in my free-tier version of Sidekick, which I have for personal use, the Dashlane Chrome extension does not work well and needs a page I am on to reload whenever I activate it. Keep it up, folks!
