I have so many pinned tabs needed in this space, but as advvertised i want to compact them to icon only format. i cant find the in the settings. i tried searching for essentials and pinned and nothing showed about a compact or similar wording to make it icon only.
is this feature even available for linux? (using Cachy OS)
I saw someone on Twitter ranting about how Dia browser is putting its AI features behind a paywall. I assumed it was a joke as $100/month for one of the only good features in Dia seemed absurd but I checked, and it's real.
Do we think this will lead more of the casual users towards open source options like Zen which cant and wont charge subscriptions?
The Browser Company was acquired by Atlassian for ~$610 million in 2025. Companies don't buy other companies out of charity, they do it because they expect a return on investment. Until TBC reaches profitability, Atlassian and the shareholders will keep pushing Dia (and maybe even Arc) toward monetization.
A company either dies, or lives long enough to become monetized. Do you think TBC can pull it off? Or are you like me and think it would be a miracle if they can somehow save their product from enshittification?
This is in no way an attack on Dia or TBC, they are a company and they need to pay there 100 or so employees. I actually quite like both browsers, but I dont see how this can ever pay off.
I would like to have different spaces for education and entertainment. But, when I try to open, for example, YouTube in space for study, it only gives me the option to switch to the space where I already have a YouTube tab.
And also It would be cool if switching spaces could also switch the YouTube account associated with that space.
Basically i can see suggestions for other tabs in my other spaces. I have 3 spaces with 3 different containers for each of them. I'm wondering if i set it up wrong. It sucks because i see duplicate tabs for the various spaces as well as suggestions of previously opened tabs that were opened in other spaces
Created my first zen mod!
Simple theme for zen showing a pair neutrons along with a twinkling starfield on the top navbar and the starfield alone on the sidebar. Please try it out and provide any comments. Would also love enhancements/PRs if you can think of any!
I'm on Linux, latest version (v.1.21.13b).
I've installed Unreal Engine and saw that in the binaries, there is a zen executable, apparently it's a sort of tool for online games but when I opened it out of curiosity it opened zen, blank, with the setup steps. I didn't thought about it but when I restarted, my zen has came back to the totally blank state, not my setup.
Is there a way to revert this or am I doomed to redo everything?
This issue is persistent on Google Meet (but only) with zen...
I have tried disabling the sandbox (that improved) but still
I am on linux and i am using pipewire (and by extend: pipewire-pulse)
Zen has been.. an experience. After using for a month there's a lot to genuinely like about it. The organization for once was all that I wanted in a browser because I need a ton of tabs open for work.
But the issues are very annoying though. Sometimes it lags like crazy when you have a lot of tabs open, which goes against it's organization features that encourage you to keep a lot of tabs open and organized.
Also small things like not being able to see the time in the history tab by default and having to search a way to make it happen really make-me consider switching over and try again in 5 years.
'@tabs' doesnt work, is there any way to get it to work for searching through tabs?
I don't understand how that color picker with 2 circles works... what's the best way to get a dark mode with proper black or that Google dark for websites that don't have a native dark mode or have a badly implemented one?
Having an issue with twitter where any post with 2 or more images in my feed shrinks the images to like 2 px wide which I assume is padding. Upon object inspection I see min-width: 0px which I guess the engine is interpreting LITERALLY and shrinking the images since unchecking that element fixes the problem.
This just started today so I'm assuming it stems from the updated firefox core that was in today's update? I wrote a tampermonkey script to fix the issue for now but just curious if it's actually a bug or if my profile happened to get botched at the same time as an update to Zen came through.
zen version : 1.21.14b (64 bits)
os : cachyOS / niri

Since ce last update I have weird zones of different coloring on youtube. And it's not an Internet pb.
The pic speak for itself. You can see verticals zones
The browser is still in beta. When should a stable release be expected?
Let's say I open a new tab hitting CTRL+T and I write @ cont to choose a container and then the URL. Can I do that? without having to press New Tab or right click on the already opened tab on the menu? I also know I can pin my contained tabs, but i just don't to pin social media so I would feel less distracted.
Hi, I recently found this browser and i'm planning to start using it. I know very little about it and the only thing I know is that it's a "new" browser, and since I discovered they have a reddit community, I thought that it could be a great idea to ask here for some information. thanks :)
On the latest version update
UPDATE: Just found the issue. It was Adguard all along, causing facebook and instagram not to load. Although I disabled the extension but I had adguard installed on windows and it was causing the trouble. However, the problem only occurs on Zen, and not on other browsers!
Steps to reproduce:
When reopening the browser, I receive the following message:
“Zen is already running, but is not responding. The old Zen process must be closed to open a new window.”
After closing the old Zen process, the browser works normally again. However, the problem returns as soon as I open Facebook or Instagram.
Extensions and troubleshooting:
about:profiles: YesSo basically in the past few days i've been having this issue where zen keeps freezing at random moments, it started a few days ago and it has never done this, its only on zen and no other browser, the only thing that makes it work is either terminate zen on the task manager or switching between apps, and the app has to override zen, if i have discord on the 2nd monitor and switch to it zen will still be frozen, the app that is open has to be on top of zen for it to unfreeze, i hope someone has a fix, i've been searching for a solution but I haven't found it yet. Thank you in advance!
Hi,
I see everyone talking about Sine, Nebula, etc. but is it still relevant? Because on the official github it has become impossible to download
I really want to try Zen Browser, but so far I just don’t get how people can even use it. Either I’m blind, or there are no mouse gestures here. They literally boost productivity several times over (!).
I know there are extensions for Firefox, but they all work really poorly. Nothing can replace native support.
Is there any news about plans to add them?
