What is happening with Midori anyway?
They switched from (apple) WebKitGTK to Electron (google chromium) with the Astian Foundation merge; https://gitlab.com/midori-web/midori-desktop/-/blob/master/README.md
- Midori Browser now with its own search engine

Midori Browser continue with its development
It's good that you are continuing developing Midori, this time based on Wexond, as far as I can see in the source code. Why don't you use the WebKit engine like the original Midori? How does the new Midori differ from Wexond?

Confidential/promising/niche Browsers
I am a dev, but not the one of Orion. As for Wexond successors, there is also Midori.

What is your opinion about the Midori Browser
Looking at their gitlab last commit to master was from dec 2020. They do have a release from Jan this year but compared to Firefox / Chromium release cadence that's ancient..

Does anyone know when the Midori browser for Desktop will be released?
You can check the progress of Midori for desktop on their Gitlab.

This is an absolutely horrendous answer and goes against the spirit of being a hacker.
Also, you remember the old lightweight Midori browser? Well, it is now an electron app.

I worried about the future of Midori broswer
After it have be brought , they rewriiten Midori to a electron broswer ( (i don't think they "rewriiten" Midori.i think they basicly forking anthor Electron browser(beaker) because it look like beaker ) and move into new repo https://gitlab.com/midori-web/midori-desktop an left the old webkit Midori repo alone( https://github.com/midori-browser/core). Since then , Midori broswer is dead .it become another browser fork.

Recommend an underrated browser
Otter Browser is very lightweight and open source, Dot Browser (based on Firefox), Skye (a fork of Wexond, which is based on Electron) and Midori Browser (based on Blue Hawk, which is a fork of Falkon) are also being developed in the open

Floorp is what firefox should be.
My Split Browser features it.

Creating your own browser (?)
I recommend to try making your own web browser, as long as it brings something new and innovative, not yet another Chromium/Electron clone. For example, I am working on Split Browser which is very lightweight, being made in Qt and including tiling panes and three web engines (WebKit, Ultralight and Edge WebView2). The development is very slow since I don't have much free time, but I am learning a lot of things by implementing them.

Brave Browser introduces vertical tabs
Check out my Split Browser (https://github.com/niutech/splitbrowser), currently alpha.

If webkit is open source why isn't there a good webkit based browser on windows
There are WebKit browsers for Windows: Otter Browser and my Split Browser (alpha).
-
Do you think Apple will ever bring Safari back to Windows?
My experimental minimalistic Split Browser has WebKit engine on Windows.

How do I make a chromium based browser?
I started a cross-platform browser based on Qt, WebKit (Playwright build) and Ultralight - Split Browser. This is how it looks like: screenshot. Maybe you'd like to contribute?
-
What Beta-Browsers are you all looking forward to have an official release?
And I'm looking forward to releasing a first stable version of my Split Browser next year, cross-platform and based on three web engines: native, WebKit Nightly and Ultralight.

Will Epiphany ever improve?
Epiphany is not the only alternative web browser - there are: Konqueror based on KHTML, Otter Browser based on WebKit and my Split Browser (alpha) based on WebKit/Ultralight.

Midori Browser completely based on Gecko
Browsers engine diversity is a good thing, but I think WebKit would be a better choice than Gecko - it is more lightweight (see Otter Browser vs Firefox) and there is lack of a modern WebKit browser on Windows (apart from my Split Browser, still in infancy). Good luck!
-
Browser Grid Layout Availability
This is exactly what my Split Browser does (still work in progress, see screenshot).
