Since we are able to install plugins from Firefox/Chrome we should also be able to install themes. Although you can install them, they don't do anything. Probably the themes are not as easy to implement because Safari looks different than those browsers however then there should be themes under Orion's own preferences and the ability to let users make their own themes and upload it.

    Yes support for some kind of theming is planned, although it will be using native components so firefox/chrome themes will not work.

    Lots of themes on the firefox addons website.

    Perhaps placing a background image underneath the tab chrome and taking the background color of the theme and placing it into macOS would fare?

    Fortrikka changed the title to Orion third-party tab themes .

      I’m not against this level of customisation but I think it is unlikely to happen as it will be at odds with Orion’s design ethos? From https://browser.kagi.com/faq.html,

      Why does Orion look very similar to Safari (and not Chrome or Firefox)?

      We see Safari as the "reference" implementation from the OS manufacturer itself, Apple. So using Safari as our reference ensures that Orion follows best practices in design, engineering, interactions, and more. We respect the decisions that Apple made and abide by them at every point where they serve our users’ interests.

          Are there any plans to change UI and Add unique themes, I just don't want to feel I'm using Safari

              Bjdev Orion and Safari use native macOS components. Any browser using native macOS controls and following HIG would look the same.
