Google Chrome is killing more extensions than you think - is your old favorite on the list?

[saharamaleikuhm@feddit.org]

I like Floorp.

[not2dopey@sh.itjust.works]

chrome just killed Ublock on me and EVERY site is now full of ads... I had no idea how bad it had become!
What browser do you suggest?

[turnip@sh.itjust.works]

Firefox of course.

I'd also suggest their VPN, as its a cheaper mullvad.

[korhaka@sopuli.xyz]

Firefox or a fork of Firefox.

[zarkanian@sh.itjust.works]

Speaking of Firefox forks... they're doing some really cool things with FireDragon and Zen Browser.

[whyjiffie@sh.itjust.works]

Hopefully it will carry thebweight of you all.

I think this analogy starts to fall apart like the boat in it

[phoenixz@lemmy.ca]

Yeah I only run chrome for Microsoft teams which I unfortunately still have to use.

The other day I saw a list of like 20 plugins, about 90% of what I have installed, banned. Not that I ever want chrome back but WTF?

[seekpie@lemm.ee]

Haven't found a better fork with vertical tabs and the customization Floorp offers. So Floorp it is.

If you’re talking about the extension that looks like an R with a green arrow, the author passed away a couple years ago. https://github.com/einaregilsson/Redirector/issues/329

The repo has a new maintainer but there’s been no new releases since the maintainer doesn’t have access to the extension release pages. No surprise that a MV3 version hasn’t been worked on.

It still works on Firefox, though.

Hey, thanks! I don't know if I can use Firefox at work. I'll have to see. Could be a good time to push Firefox there.

One of the extensions blocked is called "Trump blocker" - looks like they are getting into arse kissing too

[xor@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

It's not blocked because of the "Trump" bit though, right? It's because it's not a manifest V3 extension

Hopefully the new maintainer can get releases going again. It’s a great extension!
