> I'm assuming the people who are asking for Orion to be open source are not paying for it. I think this is an odd/slightly-disingenuous statement. I mean, I'm on linux, so I'm not, I'm happily paying for kagi though, and would pay for Orion+ if it was available to me :) I would also very much like it if Orion was open source, it would make me feel a lot better committing to and recommending a browser if I had actual assurances it's behaving appropriately, beyond a company saying "trust me", no matter how nice/cool they seem at the time. Honestly, I kinda wish Orion+ was the only option, I think having a free option (and the incentives that can create) is kind of antithetical to Kagi's whole raison detre. | ||

Kagi isn't 100% open source but you still use it and recommend it? How do you know they aren't spying on the backend? | ||
