  • I know there are several options for forcing dark mode on various sites such as userContent.css in Firefox and the Dark Reader extension. However, some browsers such as Brave and Bromite have a built-in version of this feature.

    It would be great for Orion to have this built-in "dark mode" for any site so that we can be sure extensions aren't spying on us or doing other nefarious things with our data since they require expanded access to work.

    • Steps to reproduce:
      1) launch the page orion://notes in a new tab on Orion.app
      2) Open System Preferences.app then navigate to the General Preferences Pane and select Dark Under Appearance, the Orion Notes page will not be dark until reloaded

      Expected behavior:
      I personally expected the Orion Notes page to have the Dark theme change with the system, without a reload as this is supported in CSS3

      Orion, OS version; hardware type:
      Orion Version 0.99.113.2-beta (WebKit 613.1.12); 12.3.1 (21E258); MacBook Air (M1, 2020);

      I also tested this on my Intel i5 Thinkpad T440s running macOS 11.2 and the same Orion version with the exact same results

      • It's great to be able to see and open the tabs that are in Orion on other devices. I'd like to be able to send a tab from the device I'm currently on to another device with which I'm syncing.

        Specifically, I sometimes open a tab on my work machine. Then, I realize it's something I'd rather read or do on my personal machine. I'd like to send this tab to that machine. It could be waiting for me when I open Orion on my person machine.

        • Steps to reproduce:
          1) Visit https://somafm.com/suburbsofgoa/index.html and click the Listen Now button. A new tab opens but no audio plays. Even when clicking the play button, no audio is heard.
          2) Add a whitelist for the URL to "Allow all auto-play" and still no audio is heard.
          3) Turn on compatibility mode for the URL and still no audio is heard.

          Expected behavior:
          1) The audio should start auto-playing if the setting is on for this URL or all URLs.
          2) The audio should start playing if the play button is pressed regardless of auto-play settings.
