arppacket | on: An Update on Orion for Linux and Windows
I don't understand the decision to open source the Linux and Windows ports, but not the MacOS version. They should have moved their Orion development into the open, and said we're not going to support Linux and Windows going forward. Then someone else could have picked up the task of keeping the Linux and Windows forks in sync with their MacOS work.

Agreed, the open source Linux and Windows versions feel pretty much DOA without the ability to reference and port the macOS source code

Port what? The UI code is going to be completely different across platforms?

This is typically how quality native ports work.
