This week in my search for a macOS+iOS alternative to Firefox I’m trying out Kagi’s Orion browser on macOS and iOS. It's WebKit based.

Pros: no telemetry (they say); built in ad and tracking blocking; can install Chrome and Firefox extensions; it can run uBlock Origin (even in iOS!).

Cons: not open source (their FAQ says they're "working on it”); requires iCloud for bookmark and tab syncing; WebKit.

There are only two business models on the web: either you pay for your browser, or someone else does. This is why Orion is entirely user-funded.

No third party deals, ads, trackers, or any other incentive to corrupt the user experience and overall quality.

Proud to be part of that (find me in the team pic). Outstanding performance by the Airbus NL team. Go #Orion Go #Artemis Moonshot, Baby!

"Orion is a zero-telemetry browser; has built-in ad and tracking blocking; and reportedly offers lower memory usage, faster page speeds, and greater battery efficiency on Apple devices than other browsers. It also supports both Chrome and Firefox extensions."

Kagi is Bringing Orion Web Browser to Linux

Kagi, the company behind a paid, private search engine1 of the same name, has announced it’s bringing its Webkit-based Orion web browser to Linux. In a post on BlueSky, Kagi said: “We’re thrilled to announce that development of the Orion Browser for Linux has officially started!”. Feature-parity with the macOS version is expected by next year (all going well). Orion is said to best Safari, Google Chrome, and Firefox in many areas on macOS: zero-telemetry browser; built-in ad and tracking blocking; lower memory usage; faster page speeds; greater battery efficiency, support for Chrome Extensions and Firefox Add-ons.

After the whole debacle with #mozilla and their new TOU I've loaded up #orion and am thoroughly impressed. Super light and fast. Now giving the #kagi search engine a go because I'd rather pay to get good, real results than not pay and be taken advantage of and served a sub optimal experience.

CIX (#Orion C6 SoC vendor) plans to upstream EDK2 support for the platform in Q3/Q4 of 2025.

Looks like I will order this board in December.

Not much left from marketing "World's First Open Source Arm V9 Motherboard" slogan.

Not "World's First", not "Open Source". Just "Arm V9 Motherboard". In a need of fixes to be done.
