Vlad I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for such a wonderful product. I have purchased Onion Plus Lifetime, but there is one feature that I'm currently missing: proxy support with extensions like FoxyProxy or SwitchyOmega. Please consider adding proxy support so that we can all fully transition to our beloved Orion. Thank you.

Add http proxy support

Is there any update on this?
I think Orion still doesn't respect the system-wide proxy settings, meaning its traffic doesn't go through whatever proxies are configured on MacOS internet settings. I know this because on my work-issued Mac, my employer uses a cloud proxy (Forcepoint Neo) to restrict allowed domains, which ironically I can completely bypass if I use Orion 
This is, of course, not the intended behavior. Orion should:
- Respect the default proxy settings configured in MacOS if not told otherwise
- Allow us to configure a different proxy in the settings, or just add proper support for extensions that already handle this wonderfully (SwitchyOmega, FoxyProxy, etc.).
This is important because there are many situations where we might need to route a specific web browsing session through a specific proxy, which is not possible with Orion right now. In my case I do need to use specific proxies for specific websites at work, which means I cannot use Orion for work.

This is a bit tricky as this is a company-managed system, so I don't have total freedom to tinker with settings (e.g.: I cannot disable said Forcepoint Neo proxy). But let me play around and see if I can find a way.
What I can tell you is these settings are in MacOS network settings -> VPN and filters, then in the lower part of the window there's an area called "Filters and proxies". In that space, we have an item of type "Transparent proxy" that simply checks every website requested by a web browser and allows/blocks the request based on a blacklist.
Other web browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc.) correctly respect this transparent proxy unless you configure a different one in the browser settings (Firefox) or through an extension. But Orion doesn't seem to go through this proxy at all, as I can freely browse any of the websites in their blacklist.
As said, I'll try to tinker a bit and see if I can somehow create a test scenario, but I'm afraid I probably won't have permissions to change any settings in that pane.

I work with a number of company resources can only be accessed via a proxy, while not needing a proxy for the vast majority of other browsing. I have FoxyProxy configured to automatically use a SOCKS proxy, only for those resources. It doesn't work with Orion, which prevents me from completely switching over and having to run another browser for official work.

System wide proxy settings are not good enough. They need to be configurable per profile with advanced rules, perhaps per site, like the fancier proxy extensions do.

Ugh this one feature is crucial for many people. I hoped that orion could levarage FoxyProxy extension but it doesn't work sadly enough. This and folders are much needed. Thanks in advance.

+1 for the support of HTTP/HTTPS Proxies within the Browser. I also need different Proxies to access company resources and use SwitchyOmega or ProxyVerse as of now within Chrome. If Orion had the possibility to manually set a Proxy it will also be possible to develop extensions such as these to be able to switch them based on domain or manually, which is a crucial part in a webbrowser for me and I suppose also for many others.

I actually tried using Proxifier to attempt to make this functionality work, both by adding an Orion web app (i.e., an SSB) into Proxifier, as well as an Orion profile app, and even the main Orion app itself—yet sadly, none of my efforts panned out.
It seems that Orion utterly refuses to proxy the actual, rendered browser content through any kind of proxying mechanism, whether via a Chrome / Firefox extension (like the ones that have already been mentioned previously on this thread), or even something that operates at a lower system level, as Proxifier does.
For reference, Proxifier normally works with any native app, e.g., Mail, Messenger, etc. Although I have noticed that Proxifier has some odd behavior with Safari, in that some websites appear to funnel through the proxy, while others do not.
Still, the fact that Proxifier doesn't work at all with Orion is very peculiar and unexpected. I'm guessing Orion must be doing some rather fancy WebKit-based tricks which prevent traffic from actually going through a singular binary file, as opposed to a normal macOS app.
As with everyone else on this thread, I would like to echo that this functionality should either become a part of the browser itself as soon as possible, or efforts should be made to accommodate the usage of browser extensions like Proxy SwitchyOmega, Proxy SwitchyOmega 3 (ZeroOmega), FoxyProxy, etc. (I tried all of these, and none work in Orion).
Attempting to force a proxy via system-level tools like Proxifier shouldn't be necessary to enable this crucial functionality in Orion, although the fact that even Proxifier doesn't help to alleviate this issue underscores the need for developer attention on this.
As with others above, I rely on SOCKS proxies for work and cannot use Orion as my daily driver unless support for this feature is added. This is a real shame, as I was intending to try migrating to it as my main browser, until I found out about this very frustrating problem.

This is pretty serious. After seeing this I realize this is a hard-stop for many of us in considering Orion. I am very sad. 
ZeroOmega essentially must be useable or Orion is DOA. <deep sigh>
