Kagi is now beginning development for Orion on Linux! It’s a webkit based browser, which isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I am ecstatic to see something other than another freaking Chromium browser!
Fantastic news! And perfect timing, too, with who knows what the fuck is going it at Mozilla atm
Not using any browser that isn’t open source.
I use it on my iPad. It’s like Safari but on steroids. You can install Chrome and Firefox extensions. I’m hopeful it will become open-source in the future.
Okay, I think I like where this is going. I don’t usually enjoy apps “ported” from other platforms, specially from macos, since I feel them like windows to those platforms, but this could be a good thing nevertheless, nice!
WebKit was originally a fork of KDE’s KHTML and K JavaScript. So technically it’s a return to Linux at least.
EDIT: GitHub page
It’s also not fully open source, but on the FAQ page for Orion there is a mention that they are working on it!
Orion is a browser, for those who also had never heard of it.
Ohhhh now this is actually pretty cool. I was disappointed they were doing it for MacOS, but I will definitely give it a try on Linux.
I like their search engine just fine.
Same here. I am just so happy to see something different in the browser space. Couldn’t come at a better time!
