I hope Orion (from Kagi) gains more traction and follows through w/ open-sourcing everything. Privacy-first, 0-telemetry, performant, capable... just not OSS (yet).


Any info about planned open sourcing? I have not heard about it.



Orion is a WebKit fork which is nice to have but Linux support seems so far off (is there a modern project that builds WebKit on Linux or windows at all?)

I have been satisfied with moving to Zen, a Firefox fork that behaves like the late Arc browser


When I linked the nightly Windows WebKit builds last week, λigrunert (who works on it) said:

Gnome web is based off of webkit-gtk


I use it on my iPhone because I can actually get ad blocking but it is also the glitchiest browser I've ever used. Worth it for no ads, but that's kinda Apple's issue.


ublock origin lite is now available on the app store- could be woth a look if you want safari ad blocking


Thanks! I'll give it a try. Sad it doesn't seem to work in Firefox
