Well, for one thing there’s inherent convenience of using something you’ve been using for a while—bookmarks, open tabs, familiarity of interface. Granted, as far as points go it’s quite trivial, but if the alternative is zero telemetry by default and features that aren’t particularly significant, you won’t get me to switch a browser. Then we have dark mode, which Brave has by default.
Dark mode and interface of Brave aside, Orion is better. On its shoulders is admittedly a very unfair burden of winning over people who are already users of other browsers. Orion could do it, that window is still there—through delivering extensions support. Chrome and Firefox extensions are already available on Mac, so it’s not a little bit confusing to me as to why Orion desktop is prioritized when in prioritizing extensions on iOS there’s a completely unique opportunity of winning over users other iOS browsers, and having them switch to Orion on desktop after. I doubt it would have the same effect in a desktop-to-mobile scenario, in case of Apple ecosystem anyway. And you probably want that ecosystem, since it’s the best bet you have of growing Orion’s userbase. In my unhumble view anyway.
