So is adblock like totally dead on chrome ?

[–] Norgur@kbin.social 20 points 1 year ago

it will be if Google goes forward with their plans.

Wait until January 2024. Then it will be much less powerful

Unless there are developments that i unaware of the dev of ublock expressed that the changes would be huge for their ability to filter ads.
