from what i understand orion is overflowing with bugs.

even without the bugs, after everything we’ve been through with crazy shit from closed sourced browser companies, the last thing i’d install would be orion/kagi. lol nuh uh.

not a chance i’d trust an ai company with almost the entirety of my online existence—especially when they close off and hide what they’re doing.

Orion is not made by an AI company, it’s made by Kagi.

If you’re an open source or non-profit diehard then yes, it’s not that, but as far as closed source for-profit businesses go, they’re a lot better than most. They are a public benefit corporation that has rejected VC funding, and their main pitch is aligning user and company benefit, despite the mainstream currently railing against it.

I’m not affiliated, just a user.

I use it as a daily driver on macOS. Not noticing the bugs anymore.

I just started giving it a try again about a week ago, and I second this. A year ago it was nearly unusable for any extension outside their preferred list, now it’s largely a pleasant experience.

I use it on iPhone, it has lots of bugs. But it's worth it for the ad blocking

		Why not just use AdGuard or PiHole?

AI company?

I thought Orion is made by Kagi?
