Little Sol: a quick look at any link in a small window of its own, from Sol or from any app.

  • Little Sol: a compact window for a single page, like Arc's Little Arc.
    Links from chats and email open in it instead of piling up as tabs, and so
    does Ctrl+Alt+click on a link or Open link in Little Sol in the link menu.
    To keep the page, click Open in Space: it moves to that Space as it is,
    without reloading. Otherwise just close the window.
  • Ctrl+Alt+N from any app: a command bar opens right away wherever you
    are. Type an address or a search, with Google's suggestions as in Sol's own
    command bar, and it opens in Little Sol.
  • Sol in the notification area: while Ctrl+Alt+N is on, Sol keeps its icon
    in the notification area after you close its windows and starts there when
    you sign in to Windows. Only a small helper runs, using about 3 MB of memory,
    until you open Sol. Click the icon to open Sol, or right-click it for New
    Little Sol and Quit Sol.
  • Settings > Links: turn Ctrl+Alt+N, Ctrl+Alt+click and Little Sol for
    links from other apps on or off.
  • New installs start with integrations off: turn on the ones you want in
    Settings > Integrations. Your current settings stay as they are.

Fixes

  • Shortcuts and websites: a website now gets the keys it uses itself, as
    in Chrome. Ctrl+D duplicates in Figma again, and a key you moved to another
    shortcut in Settings is no longer taken by Sol. New tab, close tab, new
    window, reopen closed tab and switching tabs stay Sol's on every site.
  • Extension popups: a popup that kept getting narrower, such as
    Bitwarden's, now opens at a readable width.
  • Sign in with Google: Chrome's own sign-in prompt no longer appears. It
    could hold the mouse, so nothing on the screen could be clicked until it was
    closed.
