Orion on iOS has been life changing for me.
- Volundr 2y agoAs a Linux Firefox user who is Orion-curious I'd be interested in hearing more about how.
- kemotep 2y agoFull manifest v2 ublock origin on an iOS browser is pretty amazing.
- teruakohatu 2y agoYou got me excited and I installed it but uBlock Origin does not work and is not supported on iOS. If you have it installed and it appears to be working, it’s probably the default native ad blocker that’s doing the work. https://orionfeedback.org/d/9145-ublock-origin-not-existent-on-ios/2 https://orionfeedback.org/d/9145-ublock-origin-not-existent-...
- worble 2y agoWait... so they browser says it's supports manifest v2 and lets you install v2 extensions, but then they just silently don't work? That's pretty confusing behavior. Why even offer them if they're blocked on an OS level?
- teruakohatu 2y agoThat is my understanding, they can’t fully implement some of the lower level functions on iOS. The APIs seem to fail but fail silently so you can install the extension, it appears to be working but it does not. I think failing loudly would be better for users.
- kemotep 2y agoHuh because I thought it was nuts I could block youtube ads. I thought it was ublock.
- MarcusE1W 2y agoMy understanding is that Orion has already installed uBlock Origin out of the box. No need to install the extension.
- knowitnone 2y agocan you expound on this "life change"?
- throwaway743950 2y agoNot who you are responding to, but it properly blocks ads. I can actually view things like recipes on mobile. It's great! (Blocks YT ads too.)
- dogman123 2y agoIt allows Firefox and chrome extensions!
- brendoelfrendo 2y agoBeing able to set my default browser to Kagi was enough. I'll deal with Orion's bugs for now because I don't want to go back.
