long time no posting, here's some of the stuff we released in helium recently: - customizable keyboard shortcuts on all platforms - automatic updates on windows - frameless mode (previously zen mode), with floating sidebar, is now out of beta and included in settings by default - improved (1/6)
new this week in helium: - web content frame with concentric rounded corners that dynamically adjust based on the adjacent surface across all platforms - a whole lot of zen mode UX and stability improvements that make it a joy to use, including new options to pin the sidebar or the top bar. (1/5)
and with today's update, you can now position vertical tabs on the right side! we also made a few improvements based on your feedback, including saving the sidebar width and collapse preferences across sessions
helium just got experimental vertical tabs! now you can choose between three browser layouts: classic, compact, and vertical :) http://helium.computer
here’s your helium wrapped for 2025: hours spent browsing: we don’t know most popular websites: we don’t know total number of users: we don’t know
just a reminder that if you have a bug report or a feature request, please file it on github, but check whether there’s an existing copy beforehand. this makes issue tracking a lot easier for us. thank you!
we’ve updated our terms and privacy policy to accommodate for the new donation page: https://helium.computer/donate we also published both legal documents in a public repo for full transparency and revision history
