Is Chrome the New IE?

The only browser that seems to be able to get around this is Orion. No idea how they are doing it.

Orion is WebKit. Safari’s rendering engine is WebKit.

I tried Orion (m1 MBP) recently. From about 3wks ago til a few days ago. I liked the UI. But there were a lot of pages that didn’t work correctly. I persevered for a while. But gave up a few days ago and went back to Brave.

I know it’s WebKit. But they are somehow allowing extensions, which none of the other iOS browsers has managed afaik.

Likely just emulating/providing the javascript interfaces needed for FF and Chrome extensions to run.
