uBlock Origin Has Been Disabled on Chrome
There is Ungoogled Chromium which I doubt will make this change. I firefox but it's nice to have an alternative.
ManifestV3 is 100% driven by Google enshittification. Down with Chrome. Long live Firefox.
Yet another reason to use a non-Chrome browser. I choose Firefox.
I choose to pay for Firefox. I know it's unpopular because people don't think Mozilla is run well. But if an opensource product is part of my daily life, then I want to pay for it.
Is it a choice when it's the only option?
There is GNOME Web, Safari, or any number of Firefox forks like Librewolf.
In the end it comes down to the browser engines. And there are not enough of them. Especially FOSS ones.
Ahh yes, removing functionality from an api used to block ads and other things is such a good update. Said no one ever
