Orion[1] (by Kagi) is sweet (but not without its own issues). Based on Webkit, supports vertical tabs, etc. But the big one: allows side-loading Chrome / Firefox extensions!

Awesome, thank you! Once Manifest v3 is officially live, I'll probably end up ditching Chrome and Google Search altogether.


> Honestly, if I wanted the opinion of randomnumbers45123 on Reddit, I'd just search Reddit.

Reddit search sucks, in my experience I get much better results using Google vs Reddit search.


It would be good if they add support for third-party browsers. Bitwarden (or other apps) can feel clunky sometimes compared to Keychain / Passwords.


Which browser are you using?

I switched to Apple Passwords and have been using the official Chrome extension for a few months. It's not as seamless as some of the password manager extensions, but has been working well enough.

Yet you said it twice[1].

I think you're missing the bigger picture here. The audience is not outraged because Reddit is trying to be profitable, it's their execution which has enraged the entire community. First, the time frame given to the 3P apps is basically something which seems like an attempt to weed the more popular ones as soon as possible, eg: Apollo, RIF, Sync. Second, the CEO is openly propagating misinformation and slandering the developers, particularly the creator of Apollo.

The devs are not asking for a free API forever, they just want Reddit to work with them and provide them with options - a sensible time frame and API pricing. Giving them a deadline of literally less than a month and an invoice of $20M doesn't show any goodwill at all on their part.


Thanks for your clarification. I wasn't able to make head or tail of the title without reading your comment.

Further it's not helped by the fact that author's attitude is that of a whiny baby[1]. His entire strategy of publicising his work is taking a huge shit on the current industry wide standards[2][3]. Also see his reaction to this post itself[4].

Any plan for Android? Also, native desktop (Mac / Windows) app?


I would love to get a link to the full version of that music in the link. I know it's a version of Bhutan's national anthem "Druk Tsendhen" but couldn't find that exact one on YouTube.



Thanks, man! Appreciate it. :)
