Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Librewolf or Waterfox.

Orion will also be getting a Linux version.

As for Orion: while I like the idea of having a browser that’s neither Chromium nor Gecko in the mix, Orion is made by Kagi which, at least in the past, self-described as an AI company, so I’m not sure how much I trust their stance to keep slop machines out of it (spoiler: I don’t). Also their CEO seems like a bit of a twat.

And it’s not really open source either apart from the WebKit parts as far as I know.

their absolute twat of a CEO is still running kagi as an AI company, and kagi fans get really weird when you bring it up
