OMEGA: an ultra-fast, security-first 3.6 MB native browser for macOS built on Apple architecture with Swift + WebKit. Opens in under a second, blocks trackers at the network level, fights fingerprinting, and refuses the surveillance economy. YouTube ads get neutralized. Amnesia Mode browses in RAM, leaves no trace, and disappears on quit. Hit Nuke to wipe cookies, cache, history, and site data. No profiling. No data brokerage. Just speed. Browse light. Browse free.

Congrats on the launch - excited to kick the tires!
"Fastest and lightest" is a bold claim! I'm always looking for browsers that don't eat up RAM. How does it handle multiple tabs compared to Chrome or Firefox? And does it support all the standard extensions?

3.6 MB is shockingly small. My only concern is whether it can handle heavy, JS-rich web apps without breaking the UI or rendering glitches. That said, the speed promise is too good to ignore. Downloading now to test its limits!
Nice one! It’s small, fast, and works. I also like how clean and intuitive the interface is. I’m curious though, why would i use it when other full featured browsers works well for me, what kind of users do you think benefit most from OMEGA day to day?

I have always faced this tracking and advertising. Will it also be available as an extension?
Big thanks to the Product Hunt community for the incredible support. Hitting #1 Product of the Day and maintaining a 10-day streak would not have been possible without you.
Since launch, we’ve shipped major upgrades focused on security, control, and speed:
🔐 Vault (Security & Passwords) A deeply native, macOS-level security layer for managing credentials with precision and zero guesswork.
🧠 Marketer Mode Controlled exceptions for sites that require the need for cookies such as Meta Ads & Google Analytics (or sites that can break without scripts), enabled strictly on your terms.
⌨️ Pro Keyboard Shortcuts A faster, developer-centric command layer for navigating Omega at speed.
(More info on the above in "FULL DETAILS" below👇🏽)
We’re also seeing strong global adoption across the US, Europe, and Asia — thank you for helping Omega grow worldwide.
More updates ahead, and as always, built with privacy first
FULL DETAILS:
1. The "Vault" (Security & Passwords) 🔐
This is the most advanced part of the browser, now fully integrated with macOS security.
• Verified Fill: TouchID/FaceID is required only when filling or viewing passwords, not saving them.
• Saved Passwords Panel: A dedicated glass panel to view, delete, and manage saved site credentials.
• Strict Context: "Sensitive" domains (Google, Proton, banking) require a strict URL match and hint to autofill; no guessing allowed.
2. The “Marketer” Mode (Exceptions on our terms) 🧠
Allow Cookies mode for Marketers and sites that require such behavior
• Exceptions List: A allowlist panel to allow ads/scripts on specific broken sites (e.g., enabling Meta and Google Ads or Analytics).
3. Keyboard Shortcuts (The "Pro" Layer) ⌨️
We overrode system defaults to give you a developer-centric layout:
• Cmd + . → Open Settings directly.
• Cmd + , → Open Control Center (Menu).

@micheltrillo Hey, thanks for really great project. So small and yet so powerful. I wonder where people can look for project updates. The site is not very useful.
