Edit: dino 's suggestion is no longer working as of today (Aug 2nd 2023), after 0.99.125-beta release

alright looks like I found a workaround for this and managed to succesfully get it working.
It's as simple as installing the MetaMask extension from the popular extensions section in Orion (as shown in this screen record) instead of installing it from Chrome or Firefox web store.
Thanks dino for the suggestion 😃

      Hi!

      I tried the workaround from @dino but it is still not working for me 🙁 It keeps the infinite loading.

      How can I solve that?

      MacOS Ventura 13.5 and Orion 0.99.125-beta (WebKit 616.1.22).

      Adrià.

        adry26 unfortunately I just noticed the same after new update.
        The extension used to work before (well, not really work, but there was a workaround for not getting the error)
        but its stuck again in the loading loop now.
        Hopefully this will be addressed in the next release

            Thank you for the response! Yeah, let's wait for a bug fix, then 😃

              adry26 looks like the team is focused on improving browser functionalities rather than extensions support (except for 1Password which has been addressed in the latest release)
              I use a lot BitWarden and MetaMask but unfortunately none of them is currently working as expected: BitWarden just works partially (issues with Autofill and SimpleMail API integration) while MetaMask does not work at all.
              I've already pointed out all these issues to the devs, though. 😄

                  Metamask should work when installed form popular extensions. If that is not the case please post exact steps to reproduce.

                          Vlad Yes sure. In old version 0.99.124.3, it worked very good, intalled it from popular extensions. Newest update 0.99.125, the MTM popup keep loading, not work.

                              Vlad sorry about that, my intention wasn't to underestimate your work and effort by any mean.
                              I greatly appreciate all the work behind Orion and I've loved this browser since switching to it, would never go back to chromium-based browsers. I pay big respect to you and your development team, Vlad.
                              With that being said, yeah you definitely proved me wrong😂
                              Would love to see BitWarden and MetaMask being fully functional in the next RC🙏🏻

                                  WoPSNPlus can you remove the extension, install it from popular extensions and show a video of what is not working?

                                      Vlad

                                      thanks !

                                          Metamask and Bitwarden are the two most important extensions to me, so if either of them is not working in Orion, there is not really a reason for me to make the switch. As much as I love the browser so far, I will have to postpone the switch 💔

                                              I can confirm it worked flawlessly for the few days I've tried it.

                                              Yesterday, I suddenly got the error below. Tried restarting extension and Mac, reinstalling extension, and updating to latest RC today, to no avail. Is it just me or does yours still work?

                                                  beware that Metamask only works if installed from popular extensions, it won't work if you get it from firefox add-ons (stuck on loading loop). Screen record here
