I didn't realize you all had changed your name and I'd already installed Nxtscape and thought something was wrong when I opened up BrowserOS and saw the same UI and fox emoji icon in the chat. btw I'm not gonna lie, I liked your old name better. I'm guessing you changed it for legal reasons?
I tested it out asking it to summarize the comments of an Arstechnica article and at first it said:
> I am unable to summarize the comments as the provided page content only contains the article itself, not the comments section. The extract tool does not appear to be able to access the comments on this page.
I had to tell it to click on the "comments" link for it to actually start going through the comments. For reference, there's 3 pages of comments and it's taken more than 20 minutes and performed around 100 actions, with lots of those actions being scrolling down a very specific 1074 pixels. I am currently sitting here still waiting for the actual summary while it says "Validating task completion..."
Seems like it could be powerful, but the hand holding required and extremely slow speed make it unusable for me at this point.
Since I had Nxtscape installed, I tried the same experiment and it successfully did it in less time with fewer actions. Not sure if that's just random chance or if there's different logic running under the hood.
One final note: There's a Chrome extension that lets you use your iCloud passwords in Chrome and it doesn't work in either Nxtscape or BrowserOS. I'm not likely to use a browser that requires regularly having to go into my password manager to manually retrieve usernames and passwords, and I'm not changing my password manager for this.

Oh god that's gnarly. I'm pretty sure you're right about it being a strategy to fit more into the context window. Prior to Windsurf changing their credit system I'd thought about purposefully limiting my file lengths to fit under multiples of 100 to use fewer of the defunct flow credits.
