A browser inside your browser

Do you also keep way too many tabs open because you're afraid you'll forget them if you close them? After a while, your browser gets overloaded with tabs, and all those tabs also end up using a lot of memory.

That got me thinking... what if one browser tab could contain all my media tabs? So I built LumeTab. It turns a single browser tab into a multimedia browser with its own tab bar.

The idea is simple:

  • Keep all your multimedia platforms inside a single browser tab.
  • Make your browser cleaner and easier to navigate.
  • In my tests, it also uses less memory than keeping lots of multimedia tabs open at the same time.

I'm also planning features like synchronized watching with friends and shared multimedia workspaces.

(For those interested in the tech stack, it's built with SvelteKit, Tailwind CSS, Better-Auth, and Drizzle ORM).

The project is still in beta, and I'm looking for honest feedback before taking it further.

I'd really like to know what you think:

  1. Would something like this be useful to you?
  2. Is this a problem you also have?
  3. What features would make you actually use it?

I'm open to any feedback, whether it's positive or critical. Thanks!

What's the difference between all these browsers?

I have been looking into different kinds of web browsers, and I have zero idea what the main difference between all of them are. I have gotten recommendations from my friends about Opera, Edge, DuckDuckGo, among others. And that's not even getting into the other browsers that I've looked into on my own such as Firefox, Waterfox, Zen, and Brave. I am currently using Edge, but if there is a better option, which would you all recommend?
