Discussion Ethically Online

First it starts off as general development. Then when the team comes to depend on the sponsorship Anthropic starts demanding Claude features get integrated.

AI grifters are coming for everything.

Don't necessarily endorse it (yet!!!) but Kagi have released the alpha of Orion Browser for Linux. I'm very happy with Vivaldi right now but I'm definitely keeping an eye on this.

I quite liked Orion on my Apple devices. It let me use plugins from Chrome and Firefox inside WebKit on all my devices, so it's good to see they're expanding outside the Apple walled garden.

I think Chrome will be an incredibly hard monopoly to dislodge, but it's good to see browsers like Firefox, Orion and Vivaldi are still trucking along.

I think we're due a big backlash against US big tech soon. They will crash the economy with their AI shit eventually and legislators will be out for blood. So seeing infrastructure being put in place now to dislodge them is always nice to see.

Oh this looks interesting, had no idea it existed. Looking forward to testing it once the linux version is more videly available.

Android version would be rad too, maybe in the future.

I think they're planning to release on everything eventually.

Apple was first because they're using WebKit as their engine, which is very mature in the Apple ecosystem.

But Kagi are good eggs. I pay for their search engine and it's an extremely high quality product worth £10 per month.
 
The whole concept of supporting extensions from different browsers is kind of wild. I mean I guess once Firefox moved to WebExtensions back in the day the core of the extension is not that different across various browsers, but still. No one else has done it.

Yeah, they even got it working on iOS too, I think.

Crazy ambitious.
