  • Hello,

    Sorry for the late reply, I thought about this a few times and I don't know what would be the best thing for me.

    In a way, I appreciate that there is a validation process to make sure the popular extensions are working, in another way, new versions often bring new features, and most importantly bug and security fixes, which is crucial regarding password managers. As an example, the release notes mentions:

    Version 2024.3.1
    Released Apr 8, 2024 - 10.74 MB
    Works with firefox 91.0 and later, android 91.0 and later

    • Updates to passkey creation flows
    • Address potential XSS vulnerability in notification bar
    • Bug fixes and small improvements

    The "XSS vulnerability" fix is something I want to have.

    So do you recommend this issue as a feature request to upgrade the installable version from the Popular extension, or should this be close and I rely on the version from the addons website?

    Thanks for your input, have a good day!

    • As a follow-up to https://orionfeedback.org/d/7905-bitwarden-from-the-popular-extensions-is-outdated, still on the clean profile with Bitwarden installed, here is what I see in the Popular extensions screen and extensions list:

      And I clicked on "Update", and now I see:

      The "Installed" in the Popular Extensions list is back to "Get"!

      Side note: if I click on "Get", it reinstalls the old version.

      When an installed extension from the Popular Extensions is updated, it should still be shown as installed in the "Popular Extensions" screen.

      • Hello, I used a clean profile for this.

        Went to the popular extensions screen and installed Bitwarden.

        Now going to the list of installed extensions, I see this:

        "2023.7.1" seems pretty old, and https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bitwarden-password-manager/ is showing that the last version is currently 2024.4.2.

        I expect to get a recent version of Bitwarden (I have not tried the others but I think it also applies to them).

        • Hello!

          I just noticed this:

          I opened a new clean profile and I see this:

          Or when I am on a website and try to type:

          I expect a bit of space between the favicon and the URL or the placeholder ("Enter website name").

          I think this is new, I don't remember seeing this before the last update (Version 0.99.127.2.1-rc (WebKit 619.1.1)).

          Version 0.99.127.2.1-rc (WebKit 619.1.1)

          • Hello,

            In the video, using a new clean profile:

            • I opened 2 tabs and enabled the vertical tabs.
            • I used the pinch to get the tabs view.
            • I switch to another tab from the sidebar.
            • I used the pinch again to get the tabs view.
            • I try to click on the same tab => nothing happens.

            I expect to exit the tab view and go back to my tab, like it does with the other tab.

            Note: it works in Safari ersion 17.4.1 (19618.1.15.11.14).

            Thanks!

            • Hey @Vlad,

              I am on Version 0.99.127-rc (WebKit 619.1.1) and this is fixed!

              Thanks 🙂

            • Hey @Vlad, thanks for your reply.

              I have Safari Version 17.4 (19618.1.15.11.12) and hitting the escape key brings me back to the last seen tab:

              Related to the previously mentioned "highlight", I don't see anything to identify which was the last tab visually in Safari.

              • Hello,

                I regularly jump into the tabs view by mistake and I think 2 improvements would make my life easier:

                • Having an easy way to go back to the last seen tab.
                • Highlighting the last seen tab to identify it clearly.

                To reproduce the "jump into the tabs view by mistake": scroll with weird fingers (maybe I am the issue haha).

                I am adding a video when I am on a pinned tab, and the pinch brings me to a part of the tabs view where the tab I was not does not appear in the list:

                About the keyboard shortcut:

                1. Use weird fingers to accidently enter the tabs view.
                2. Oops, that is not what I want.
                3. Hit the keyboard shortcut (escape key?)
                4. Back to the last tab, yeah!

                About the highlighting of the last tab, here is my use case:

                1. I have many tabs (in the video I have 5 pinned tabs and 10 standard tabs).
                2. Do the pinch to enter the tabs view.
                3. Oops, that is not what I want.
                4. I can identify the tab I was on and click on it to get back to business.

                These 2 improvements would help me (hopefully others too) a lot to exit the tabs view.

                • Hello, I just tried in Version 0.99.126.4.1.8-rc (WebKit 619.1.1), all good!
                  Thanks a lot!

                • Yes.

                  I just tried a clean profile, logged into raindrop, used compatibility mode with the popup allowed:

                  Selecting 2 links and using the "Open" button still opens only 1 tab.

                  • Vlad replied to this.
                  • Sorry I should have written that. This is exactly what I did. Thanks.

                    • Hello!

                      I have sent a message to Raindrop to ask if they are aware of any existing issue or bug report first, they were super reactive and updated their guide to open multiple links to add Safari: https://help.raindrop.io/troubleshooting/open-multiple-links/#safari

                      I tried their recommendations in Safari and it works, multiple tabs are create when I selected multiple links and click on "Open".

                      I tried in Orion and it does not work.

                      • Vlad replied to this.
                      • Once in Picture in Picture mode, I move it with the mouse. Not precisely because the mignature positions itself close to the borders:

                        • I have multiple pinned tabs. When I hover the last one, the darker background glitches with the previous pinned tab.

                          This quick video will show the issue:

                          The darker background matches the width of the pinned tab and doesn't try to spread to the one next to it.

                          • In https://app.raindrop.io (the website, not the extension), there is a "Open" button to open the selected link(s).

                            When I select multiple links in Firefox, all of them will be opened in new tabs. In Orion, only 1 tab is opened.

                            Here is an example (Firefox on top, Orion below):

                            I expect the same behaviour as I see in Firefox, multiple tabs open when I click "Open" with multiple links selected.

                            Notes:

                            • I tried in compatibility mode, no effect.
                            • I tried with Safari Version 17.3.1 (19617.2.4.11.12), I get the same behaviour as Orion (so I am scared that this can't be fixed 😢).

                            Thanks!

                            • I went to YouTube to watch the VALENTINE'S DAY STREAM by Marc Rebillet and started the Picture In Picture mode.

                              When the video is in one of the bottom corners, it looks great with a bit of margin:

                              When it is in one of the top corners, I think it is missing a bit of space at the top because it is adjacent to the menu bar:

                              I expect to have a bit more space between the menu bar and the video when it is as the top.

                              An option to configure the gap would be quite lovely.

                              • Hello!

                                Long time Firefox user here.

                                I use a custom monospace font from the Advanced font options:

                                I would love to see more options to customize fonts in Orion! It will allow users to use a set of fonts of their choice (not just one) to display. I also note the checkbox "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" which is quite interesting to give more choices to the users.

                                I am using Orion Version 0.99.126.4.1.7-rc (WebKit 619.1.1), here is the only font customization option I found under "Appearance":

                                As shown in the previous paragraph, in Firefox these fonts options are "Advanced", I think it is a good idea to not bloat the Appearance settings with that.
