Extensions not working

lazylizard42

Thanks a lot for building this amazing browser! Immediate subscribe to both orion+kagi 🙂

I have Version 0.99.115.1-beta (WebKit 614.1.12) and have installed multiple most popular extensions

DarkMode
Youtube Enhancer
1password
μBlock

as well as chrome extension store downloaded ones

Surfingkeys.

They all used to work but stopped after 2-3 hours:

if I click on the icon in the top bar, they all load indefinitely or don't respond to key presses. Note that some will load when clicking the icon but they still don't work.

things I've done to debug:

Wipe/reinstall:

uninstall
Wipe my ~/Library/Application Support/Orion directory
Reinstall

Also simple things restarting computer of course.

This issue sounds similar to https://orionfeedback.org/d/1894-most-extensions-not-working - not sure if that was ever addressed since it was just tagged notfix.
Since none of the extensions work it seems unproductive to open an issue for each of them

Steps to reproduce:
Install extensions

Expected behavior:
Work

Orion, OS version; hardware type:
Version 0.99.115.1-beta (WebKit 614.1.12)

lazylizard42 Thanks. It seems like an isue that you can reproduce. Can you give us minimum steps to reproduce the issue?

Update - after crash they seem to work again (had not worked for multiple crashes so not sure what triggered)

Update - not working again - they seem to indeterministically not work

Hi Vlad - no like said above unfortunately it's very indeterministic. The only thing I can tell you is that with the setup above (see list of extensions, orion version & OS) it doesn't work 80% of the time - so I guess minimum steps to reproduce are "install orion at version at OS above, install extensions above, use it and 80% of cases extensions don't work". If there's debugging steps/logs that I can provide happy to.

Unfortunately together with the freezing issues (whenever I ctrl-tab to Orion it freezes for 3-4 seconds) and somewhat regular crashes I have switched back to Edge for now.

lazylizard42 Thanks for your effort. As you probably realize, we prioritize the issues we can readilly reproduce, given 1,500+ issues posted on the site.
