My website has grown to 20 categories.

Please check it out. Which important categories and alternatives are missing? What should be removed again?

(I've noted earlier feedback to consider removing Proton, Brave, Signal. Which I will try to address by next month.)

I've added the controversial topic of AI chatbots. While I think there can't be truly sustainable options, I think it makes a difference whether you enter your prompts on privacy-threatening, intentionally biased and military supporting providers or with providers who adhere to rules regarding fair use of AI and privacy.

I am aware of this, and I didn't say that it was. That doesn't change the fact that Orion on iOS lets you install desktop addons from either the Google whatever they call it store, or the Firefox addon page. You could probably do it from Microsoft if you'd like, but I don't get why anyone would go with Chromium addons on account of them being hamstrung.

You cannot do that with Safari, or Firefox. Addons for Safari on iOS come from the app store, because Apple is garbage.

WebKit is a fork of KHTML which was built by the KDE project. Orion on Linux uses WebKitGTK as well, but currently doesn't have support for extensions. A part of me hopes that perhaps some things that the Kagi team develop for Orion on Linux can be ported to Epiphany, because that browser needed addon support years ago.
