Google Chrome users with the uBlock Origin extension installed started noticing that the browser flagged the extension as "soon to be unsupported." Here is why this happens and what to do with it.

      I don’t like or use brave for multiple reasons but why is the fact that it’s built on chromium a problem?

        They are doing what Apple has done to browsers on iPhones. It’s all safari all the way down… lol

          Ironically, Apple forcing Safari on iPhones is the single greatest thing standing between Chromium and total market domination.

          Not that it’s a good thing for Apple users, but it’s the one remaining reason not to slap a “Not on Chromium? Don’t bother visiting” sign on every website. Us Firefox users don’t matter, statistically speaking

        Because every browser is becoming 3 chromes in a trench coat.

        Long term this will be an issue.

        Vivaldi does have it’s own built in adblocker. You can add sources. It’s not as robust at uBO, but than nothing

        Floorp is an excellent browser. I mainly use it for the first class vertical tab support, but it’s ability to pin websites to open in a sidebar is great. I use it for stuff like Proton mail and drive.

        I will say in case anyone here saw it in the past, it had a bit of drama around the author making part of it closed source, but that was fortunately resolved before it was ever released with any proprietary code.

          This link works for me but the previous has the same broken link. I’m using the Sync android client. ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

          The 1st opens a link to the wiki page: Chromium (web browser

          Missing the ending ) for me
