possible if you could add support for this extension in specific? Its on chrome and the name is “Restore old roblox server list” quite odd request but is it possible?

      Hi,

      Tried latest version of Orion (Version 0.99.121.1-beta (WebKit 614.1.20)) with the hope that I'll see my extensions, which were made for firefox and chrome, working in this browser. But extensions simply do not work. Extensions I've tried (session buddy, marvelous suspender). Is such thing expected and Orion has only few, specific extensions working or am I doing something wrong?

      Steps to reproduce:
      You only need to install extensions to see that they are not working (session buddy, marvelous suspender)

      Expected behavior:
      I expect extensions to work as this is mentioned in Orion's features.

      Versions:
      Orion Version 0.99.121.1-beta (WebKit 614.1.20), MacOS Ventura 13.0.1, Apple Mac Mini M1:

        Many extensions do work. If you have particular issues with some, it may be worth documenting which these are.

        You may find you don't need marvelous suspender on Orion, as there is a built-in "low power mode" which sounds like it might do similar.

        Similarly, session buddy sounds a lot like Orion's built-in tab groups feature.

          gp

          I even do not know how to document this - extensions simply do not work. I press on extensions button - and nothing is happening.

          Now regarding your thoughts - "low power mode" is all or nothing. Marvelous suspender is more flexible (whitelists for example and other suspend/unsuspend options).
          Session buddy is not exactly the same as tab groups as I can see. Can I search between all of my tabs? Can I autosave and have old versions of my sessions?

            Could you clarify how is the compatibility mode for particular web page is related to inability to start extension? Or are you talking about some other incompatibility mode?

              scottjeffers

              Oh, I guess I understood what you wanted to ask. When I set compatibility mode - extensions buttons get inactive. But I have this mode off and extensions buttons are active. But when I press on these buttons - nothing happens.

                  So what’s happening is it knows I’m not using Google chrome and I can’t download any extension on Firefox or chrome extensions but this video only shows chrome. When I click add to Orion and this happens to EVERY EXTENSION not just this one in the video where when I click add to Orion it wants me to download Google chrome.

                          Hi, recently installed Orion on my mac and love the fact that it support both firefox and chrome extensions.
                          however, it looks like Orion doesn't support the new google chrome websotre https://chromewebstore.google.com yet. I can't install extensions from there (while firefox add-ons has no issue and works as expected).

                            I can confirm the new web store doesn't work on Version 0.99.125-beta (WebKit 616.1.22).
                            The good news is that it works on the current RC build (Version 0.99.125.4-rc (WebKit 617.1.6)) which should be landing on beta branch soon!

                                Extensions should work like privacybadger blocking things correctly and decentraleyes doing it’s job but popup blocker should stop popups.

                                  instead of posting these very vague and unhelpful bugs, id suggest seeing of there's a post for each extension, and upvote that. if not, make one separately for each extension. also, describe in detail how to observe the extensions not working.
                                  also, ios extension capability is limited as apple doesn't allow patching webkit.

                                                  Vlad I appreciate your update and feedback on the project. I commend your efforts to improve this product, but I urge you to address this issue as soon as possible. This issue prevents us from using third-party extensions, which limits our options and flexibility. Some third-party extensions may offer features that are more suitable for our needs than the official one.

                                                    OmPatel extensions apis are being worked on
                                                    extension suport isn’t made per-extension but by implementing each api individually so some stuff just wnot work well yet

                                                      OmPatel There are over 300,000 extensions out there, how would you go about prioritizing which one gets our attention first?

                                                        eirk I did not know that, I thought a bug prevented the extensions from working. Take Brave as an example ( Although it is built on chromium thus it is stupid to take that as an example but oh well )all the extensions work. Now that you have informed me i understand how hard it is. Thank you for informing me. I am sorry if i seemed rude in my previous posts but had no intensions of implying that you guys and not working hard enough.

                                                          OmPatel Brave took Chromium and it took exactly zero effort for extensions to work.

                                                          Orion took Webkit and it takes enormous effort to make extensions that were never meant to work in WebKit, suddenly work, processes that we have been doing for the last 4 years.
