Onion Browser On Ubuntu Touch

[A Former User]

This is a hugely important app for an OS that prides itself on privacy. Sincere thanks for it.

@lduboeuf for information, did you notice that your pulldownmenus improvement system isn't incorporated in the first onion version (dev channel) ? i saw that.

In fact, i think probably normal because onion is partly a morph clone and the improvement on pulldownmenus is recent.

[lduboeuf]

@domubpkm you're right. Onion comes from a fork that doesn't include pulldown feature, maybe you can fill an issue for maintainers, to let them sync with Morph

@lduboeuf I think the fix for the dropdown should be implemented in a way that all those that uses Morph.Web will have it by default. Currently only the morph browser and standard webapp containers have it.

@kugiigi i asked before if this feature should be enabled by default, and the decision was to opt in to enable it ( setting a property to true ). But the fact that we need to also to add a check in onJavascriptDialogRequest make sense to not enable it by default:

@lduboeuf I see. In my opinion though is that it should be opt out since there's a critical issue that this fixes and you can't expect every app to be updated for this. Anyway, this is off topic on this thread

[domubpkm]

@lduboeuf In fact, @nanu-c most likely thought about it knowing that morph-browser can only get better and better.

[nanu-c]

Actually Onion Browser is a full clone of Morph browser and when morph improves it has to be merged anyway

[kugiigi]

@nanu-c not that I don't appreciate this app but isn't it possible to simply have a tor mode in the morph browser and upstream your work?

Hi @nanu-c
For your information, if you go forward in your work : @mateo_salta found an idea that maybe could useful for you also, to solve WebRTC leaks : see
