    I’ve been playing with it since I guess towards the start of this year. The latest update still doesn’t make a browser I think is ready to call beta 🤷

    I’m keeping an eye on it, but only loosely.

      Thanks for telling us; I’ve tried to live with Epiphany for a while but had to move to Firefox for compatibility to certain websites.

      If Orion is using GTK4, this looks like a new/second/third/fourth attempt to moving to WebKit. (:

    Is this interesting? You can’t really decrappify browsers without first decrappifying the web.

      It is interesting because we are getting a popular web browser on Mac to gnulinux. I am not a big fan of it though because it is nonfree.

      You can’t really decrappify browsers without first decrappifying the web.

      I agree with this point a 100%. Wish something like Gemini would succeed (Gemini the protocol, not the google bot). The web is so bloated and “unprivate” if that is a word.

    Ok… another WebKit/Blink skin, yawn, these are a dime a dozen.
