• OpenAI just replaced its core values with completely different ones

  The Orion browser might be an answer https://browser.kagi.com/ I haven't personally tried this browser as I'm on Android but heard of it as I'm a Kagi subscriber. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Vivaldi Takes a Bite Out of the Apple: Introducing Vivaldi on iOS

  It sure seems most browser makers aren't trying very hard with the WebKit thing to still be themselves. Check out https://browser.kagi.com/ for one that wraps WebKit with web extensions and other goodness in a unique brand feeling browser. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Vivaldi Takes a Bite Out of the Apple: Introducing Vivaldi on iOS

  Orion is the first browser on iOS that has convinced me to move away from safari. From the Kagi team, and admittedly still in beta, it's fast, rejects telemetry, and allows install of Chrome and Firefox extensions. The built-in pop up and blocking is great, and nukes YT ads too. Still a little rough around the edges (sometimes freezes; restart it; and switching orientation is slow), but the pros outweigh the cons.... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• YouTube's crackdown on ad blockers intensifies

  I'm trying out Orion by Kagi: https://browser.kagi.com/ They're WebKit-based and for MacOS/iOS/iPadOS only, so they don't get max points for browser diversity, and I can't run it on my Linuxes. As far as I understand, they plan to target more operating systems, and to target the most popular add-ons for other browsers.

• Show HN: uBlock Origin filters to remove distractions

  Tangentially related: Has anyone tried the Orion Browser by Kagi for iOS? https://browser.kagi.com/ They claim to support Firefox and Chrome extensions (specifically, uBlock Origin). It's in beta. I'm surprised Apple hasn't blocked it yet, but I'd consider paying for a developer account just to install it on my phone (assuming it works). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Hush – Noiseless Browsing for Safari

  Hush is one of the extensions on my devices, but both Hush and AdGuard Pro take a back seat to: A) 1Blocker: https://1blocker.com/ B) Orion Browser by Kagi: https://browser.kagi.com/ The first brings all the blocking customisation one needs to MacOS and iOS Safari, the other runs Firefox and Chrome extensions such as uBlock Origin: https://browser.kagi.com/faq.html#extensions. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• uBlock-Origin – 1.52.0

  There's nothing that offers all these features and is free. But if you'd like to try Orion browser by Kagi [1], you can install uBlock Origin and many other web extensions for it on Mac, iOS and iPadOS. A paid alternative that is similar (at least for blocking specific elements) is AdGuard [2]. [1]: https://browser.kagi.com/ [2]: https://adguard.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
