> "I should spend less time fucking around on the Internet mindlessly consuming media."

How do you know that is the target audience? To me it's people who are research focused, which doesn't necessarily mean they're fucking around at all. Academics, scientists, etc, often spend a ton of time reading papers and researching things + taking notes. You're making a big assumption here.




Yes and that already exists - https://web.hypothes.is/ and works as a simple add-on. I don't see what new benefit the dedicated browser could bring.


There's more than one way to skin a cat...


I feel that in the case of Beam browser all cat lovers will be disappointed.


Hang on, are the cat lovers here wanting their cats skinned or not? :-P


Here is an article I would like you to read about cat taxidermy https://www.catster.com/lifestyle/pet-cat-memorials-preserva...

it explains why you can become disappointed


While we've gone OT, thanks. That was an interesting read from a different point of view.

Personally, I had never even considered taxidermy on a pet. It'd feel too much like having a relative stuffed and put on display which somehow feels disrespectful.

But then, there are things like Lenin and Mao being on display. Way off topic now so I will stop.
