Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled : technology

[–] jay@mbin.zerojay.com 1 points 3 months ago

The one and only thing keeping me on Chrome... well, Ungoogled Chromium... is the webassembly performance which is just abysmal in comparison on Firefox, sadly.

I'm not worried about this at all. I don't use Chrome anyways. I use Brave. It has a built-in ad blocker that works pretty well and I don't see that going away.

Daily plug for Cromite: https://github.com/uazo/cromite

Chrome, but it doesn't suck, doesn't track you, and it has good, fast native adblock.

Also in some linux repos now. I know its in CachyOS. And it's on Android, too.

Bring back Internet Explorer.

I would rather eternally sign my soul over to Chrome-hell than spend 5 minutes with Internet Explorer ever again

That's one way to say that you like the smell of lead-based gasoline.

How could they even allow this? Isn’t ublock an independent plugin?

Also, how about other chromium browsers?

EDIT: click bait headline, chrome is just deprecating a dependency it uses and ublock isn’t using the new version yet.

Edit 2: I didn’t realize v3 was nurfed intentionally,

Fuck google
