Phi 2.3.0

Phi Browser 2.3 is here, with a newer engine underneath and considerably more room for your Spaces, Pins, and Memory to breathe. If 2.2 was about steadiness and doing things in bulk, 2.3 is about doing them faster, on fresher foundations, with the rough edges from patch week sanded off.

Phi now runs on Chromium 150, keeping the browser current with the modern web while making pages feel a little faster and smoother. Most of the work stays where it belongs: underneath everything, quietly doing its job.

Memory has had the more visible overhaul. It now loads progressively instead of pulling everything in at once, so even a large, well-lived-in Memory opens much faster. Galaxy has also been rebuilt on a faster rendering foundation, helping it stay smooth as it grows. Observations now appear directly on their nodes, long labels are kept under control, and the whole view is easier to read.

Spaces and pinned tabs are more flexible too. Pins can now belong to either an individual Space or an entire Profile, and carry over cleanly when you move between them. The Space rail now scrolls, so a growing collection of Spaces no longer has to fight for room. Bookmark exports now include pinned tabs, extension popups stay within the window, and the sidebar provides the context menus you would reasonably expect it to.

Skill recording can now follow a workflow across multiple tabs, turning a journey through several pages into one reusable Skill. Sidecar also shows a clear "Private AI" indicator when a session is running locally, while videos automatically move into Picture in Picture when you switch away from their tab.

There is plenty of smaller work throughout the release too: a refreshed searchable icon library, cleaner model settings in Sentinel, restored Memory backup and restore, and a long list of visual polish and fixes across Spaces, tabs, extension popups, and the update screen.

Newer underneath, roomier on top, and considerably calmer than patch week left it.
