Firefox says it will keep supporting uBlock Origin even as Microsoft Edge and other Chromium browsers phase it out under Manifest V3.

    Happy with Librewolf. I can’t imagine using my browser everyday if I don’t have a good adblocker on it like uBO.

    If it goes… I don’t know what I’ll do.

    Go out and touch grass probably.

    Get a hobby.

    Perfect my molotov recipe.

    Sometimes I think it was a mistake to let the programs we primarily use to view text and images become bloated virtual machines that execute megabytes of arbitrary code with every page load.

    Worst part is google could kill Firefox at anytime because they provide a very large amount of Mozilla’s funding.

    It’s not ready yet but there’s the ladybird project that has a lot of promise. I appreciate FF a lot but their code base is a mess, they need a modern rewrite of their browser engine. That’s why we’re getting all these chromium based browsers, it’s just a better base to build off of.

    Vanadium still blocks ads/malware successfully. Probably brave as well (I don’t have it installed, I can’t verify it myself)
