Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:06:33 Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled As it was written, so it begins. There is no Manifest v3 compatible uBlock Origin. It is simply not possible. |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:09:50 @jrdepriest it may be a great comeback of Firefox-based browsers |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:10:38 @mturczynowicz we can dream! |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 12:10:00 LibreWolf, Floorp, to mention the first two that come to my mind |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:15:03 @jrdepriest there's uBlock Origin Lite, which currently blocks things as well as uBO (imo) but due to the way its filters are updated I'm worried it'll have trouble with blocking YouTube ads in the future. |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:36:57 The YouTube ad arm's race is my primary concern. The new restrictions mean you can no longer use externally hosted lists so any YouTube update will necessitate a full update to the extension. That could take days. |
Föderation · So 04.08.2024 00:16:32 @jrdepriest @notsureither Firefox has no plans to drop mv2 support at least and ubo works perfectly on FF for blocking YT ads. |
Föderation DE So 04.08.2024 10:17:54 |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 13:58:36 @jrdepriest @notsureither AIUI, they updated the ManifestV3 spec so that rule list updates with no code change are fast-tracked for approval, specifically in response to this concern. |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:17:25 @jrdepriest #LibreWolf or GTFO |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:38:47 LibreWolf but actually a big, well-managed, well-documented project, preferably. |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 03:00:21 @jrdepriest it does so little, they just strip out the ad-crud and add good ad-block/anti-fingerprint by default. |
Föderation EN Sa 03.08.2024 23:58:47 @jrdepriest In addition to the current hurdles of onboarding onto my home wifi may be a new hurdle "here is a TLS cert for you to trust and hopefully your device supports WPAD." |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 00:09:18 @jrdepriest I have three adblocking addons, on firefox, for my mental health needs. I wont name nams as I dont want companies to combat them. I need my ad free internet experience on my poor budget. |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 10:21:28 @jrdepriest will chromium also only support v3 manifest? |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 12:39:27 @jrdepriest Paiin.. though I am slowly moving to librewolf, still a biiit sad.. kinda did prefer chrome UI.. awawawa.
|
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 12:39:53 Would @Vivaldi be dropping support for manifest v2 also? |
Föderation DE So 04.08.2024 12:40:05 @jrdepriest I think we just need to tell Mozilla what features we want and what we don't want. Together we can build a browser that (mostly) meets everyone's needs. |
Föderation · So 04.08.2024 14:12:11 @jrdepriest@infosec.exchange you can install ublock origin lite instead, from the same dev, but it won't be as powerful. so it depends on what sites you use, and how aggressive they get with ads |
Föderation EN So 04.08.2024 19:51:12 @jrdepriest thank goodness i have settled with librewolf, thank you for the news.
