On Orion iOS website and their inputs cause seemingly random zooming in. I find myself frequently having to zoom out quite frequently. This notably happens on X.com.

Add a feature to disable zoom for a website, similar to how we can toggle content blockers, the option can go in that same menu.

Toggling zoom for specific websites should resolve this random zooming in, and result in a more consistent experience.

    Even better would be to fix the zooming problem.

    Can I ask you to check if you have the same problems with Safari on the same sites? I fear it might be an issue related to Webkit.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

      This is standard behaviour in iOS web views; focusing any input with a font size of less than 16px will automatically zoom in. Here's a blog post detailing this behaviour from all the way back in 2012: https://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/201212/ios_webkit_browsers_and_auto-zooming_form_controls/

      I'm not sure this is something Orion could even override on iOS without disabling zoom entirely since it's part of the system web view. Perhaps an extension could handle this without Orion needing to add another option? (I believe the Safari extension Stop The Madness offers an option for this)
