Orion 1.0 – Browse Beyond

Re:Orion 1.0 – Browse Beyond by darkwater on Tuesday November 25, 2025 @11:35AM (#46047529)

Downloaded the dmg/installer (not from the App Store), launched it and I get

  Update Error!

  An error occurred while parsing the update feed.

  [ Cancel Update ]

and clicking the button it exists, and that's it. Disappointing for a 1.0 release.

Maybe it's related to PiHole? I'm on MacOS 26.1

Orion Product Manager here – That's what happens when you think of (almost) everything and blow it all at the last minute.

Sorry about that; it's all fixed now, and we really hope everyone will love this browser we've been working on with pure passion for 6 years!

EDIT: not fixed yet EDIT2: fixed! Thanks for your patience

Yep, now it works! Nice intro video, but I would have made the Chrome planet more Death Star!
