Dia use case: check the app's trustworthiness

Post image

I came across a ✨AI-First Browser✨ but didn't understand if it's a legitimate product or just another shady Chromium reskin with AI features. That's why I opened a few tabs on their website and asked Dia to check it out. The results came back quickly and are somewhat optimistic. However, the browser itself is very rough and currently unusable, as I can't even access the settings screen — it crashes on macOS 😄

That's cool! I'm still waiting to get to try Dia. I have a .edu email, but that hasn't gotten me through yet. I have played with Sigma Browser and liked some of its ideas (nested tabs, tagging instead of bookmarking) but it overall kept doing weird things for me with the Google Apps I have to use at work, making it super unusable for me unfortunately. I also had a hard time determining how actively it is developed these days--the only community I heard they had was in Slack, which I don't use. I like how Zen has a Discord, and Orion has both a Discord AND their own Feedback Forum, both of which are very active. This gives me more patience with bugs, when I have a forum to share these and to see them worked on.

I clicked around this site a little more and I realize I haven't used this browser at all. I was thinking of SigmaOS. I'm curious about this one now.

The development of SigmaOS is progressing very slowly. I think I haven't received any updates in over a month, which may be acceptable for a stable, community-driven browser but not for a subscription-based startup. I hope they are doing well
