@jtr click on the favicon on the left of the address bar. It will pull up a menu of options. Reader mode is at the top.

@jtr I’ve been pretty conservative with my use of extensions. I’ve been using the Obsidian extension without issue. I tried the Apple Passwords extension and found it to be a bit cantankerous, but workable. In both cases, the extensions were directly developed by the parent company whose products I wanted to integrate with.

What really surprised me is that the extensions worked on both MacOS and on the IOS build of Orion.

For my own use, I have found that I actually prefer my vertical tabs NOT collapsing. I leave them open vertically. This has done a few things for me: I can see more tabs, I’m more likely to re-use tabs (reducing tab sprawl), and the vertical view acts like a weird (but useful) hybrid between a tab view and a favorites view.

@jtr of course, your mileage may vary and there’s a lot of personal choice in browsers. but I’ll share a couple of things I really like about Orion (on the Mac, the IOS/iPadOS versions are pretty underwhelming):

• nice vertical tabs implementation
• nice window grouping interface in vertical tabs
• effective default ad blocking without needing to install plugins
• WebKit based
• access to both Firefox and Chrome plugins

I came to Orion a few months ago as Arc’s development dead-end started becoming clearer

@dhester thank you! I suppose I should have saved that tree photo for the 3rd day of the photo challenge – the theme is shadow!

@manton I saw the writing on the wall a few months ago with Arc and decided to migrate away from it. I’m currently splitting my browsing between Orion (by Kagi) and Safari. I really like Orion’s approach to vertical tabs, extensions, and ad-blocking.
