Bad news for Safari

22

I’m not a fan of Safari; really only use it to bootstrap Firefox onto a new Mac.

However, my Firefox setup is maxed out with its strictest privacy settings plus some extras that I have tweaked. Also run UBlock Origin and Ghostery extensions to blat away even more stuff that inpinge on my privacy plus Fluff Busting Purity a Facebook-specific privacy extension. With all that stuff I have never encountered a web site that I can’t use — although there are dozen I won’t use after my first landing on their site.

I believe you. I have a few sites that I cannot access reliably when Private Relay is On, and have read of others that say they have had problems. So I say these problems are “suspected”.

One in a thousand pages I visit, I have to use something else than Safari. I like Safari and see no reason to switch to something else. When I need to though I have Firefox, Opera (mostly for VPN) and Chrome in the toolkit.

I also use Safari for the most part, Firefox second, and Chrome when forced to. Is there a case to be made for Brave over Firefox? I have not looked into Brave, so I’m wondering what the pros and cons are compared to Firefox.

With that profile picture you should definitely use Brave. ( :grinning: Brave is my favorite Pixar movie.)

I use Safari for everything, all the time. Works great for what I need it to do. Mostly using AWS Console, Jira/Confluence/Bitbucket, research (so, so much research), and just everyday browsing of news sites.

Anyone tried Orion browser?

Tried it long time ago, when there was no support for/from 1Password. Instant “Game over”!

Should maybe revisit that now…

(Based on WebKit, so same issues as Safari?)

It is possible now. And Kagi’s effort to get included is making 1Password’s safe browser list more flexible in the long term.

1Password integration is working fine now - you need to enable the labs browser support in 1PW though.

Was a showstopper for me too, but kept an eye on it.

Do passkeys work for you?

(I have them working in Safari and Firefox, but they don’t seem to work in Orion?)

Hmm, seems not. I only have it set up for eBay at the moment and it wasn’t offered.
Not sure if that’s an orion issue or a 1PW one.

Looks like it might be coming https://orionfeedback.org/d/3025-support-passkeys/42 - latest beta is 126.

LMAO! Not sure why I didn’t think of that since it is my favorite Pixar movie as well :blush:.
