Google ramps up its campaign against ad blockers on Chrome.
@Fitik yep, there’s literally no excuse to be on a chromium based browser now.
You want your information to be sold? Use chrome.
You want to use the internet? Use literally anything else.
Yeah, the lack of extensions/add-ons for FF has always been what’s kept me from switching permanently. Hopefully more users on FF will mean more devs working on the add-ons. Losing chrome/chromium browsers is a major bummer
At least we saw it coming I guess
Do people really think there’s not a lot of extensions for firefox? I’ve had no trouble finding tools that do even obscure things I need them to
We can only hope this means Chrome loses some market share. Also, interesting time to do this, what with the recent monopoly ruling. This is sure to draw more attention from regulators and lawmakers.
Anyone here understand what is the material difference between uBO and uBO Lite? I don’t understand what is meant by
It’s worth noting that while the new app ships with similar features to the original version, including core ad-blocking features, it doesn’t support dynamic filters for blocking scriptlet injection.
Or if there are any other differences not mentioned.
They are both legit. The lite version just has to follow the new v3 manifest rule where it cannot update its block lists independently from full extension updates. This effectively puts a significant delay in the ability of uBO Lite to block new ads/threats, among other small changes that neuter the traditional uBO experience.
