Luma vs Zen
Zen is a free, open-source browser built on Firefox, with tabs in a sidebar, workspaces and split view. Luma shares the idea of a calm browser organised in workspaces, but runs on Chromium and blocks ads and cookie banners as well as trackers, out of the box.
What stays the same
- Tabs in a sidebar, workspaces and split view.
- A compact mode that hides everything but the page until you need it.
- Tracker blocking from the first page.
What changes
- Chromium instead of Firefox: sites built for Chrome work as they do there, and extensions come from the Chrome Web Store.
- Ads and cookie banners are blocked too, with uBlock Origin’s lists built in, and one click turns blocking off for a site that breaks.
- Made for Windows first, with Windows Hello for your passwords and Snap Layouts as you know them.
Moving over
On first launch Luma imports your bookmarks, history and open tabs from Zen directly, and saved passwords too, unless you set a primary password in Zen.
