Google Chrome disables uBlock Origin for some in Manifest v3 rollout

Let's be honest: Everything that might be "worse" or "annoying" in Firefox for someone is not relevant in comparison to "no working adblocker available". A browser without adblock is unusable
-
True, but if an adblocker no longer works on a specific browser, change your browser! I started using Netscape back in '94, and lost count on how many browsers I've tested and used in the past... Holy shit, 30+ years!!
-
It's a good thing I stayed loyal to Firefox. Mainly due to my dislike of change lol, but I was forced to use Chrome and it felt ominous with its owner being Google.

i like waterfox https://www.waterfox.net/

In the past 10 years it's pretty much just been Firefox, Safari, Explorer/Edge, and Chrome. 99% of browsers are just skinned Chrome. Even Edge now. Opera's engine died in 2013.
-
99% if browsers are just skinned Chrome.
Yup. Hence, the reason I originally suggested to use Firefox, only because it's not built on Chromium.
-
go to brave, chrome has been pretty anti-adblock for a while. chromium might have a problem since it uses chrome store for extensions.
-
What issues do people even have with firefox? Its a browser, it seems fast enough. Isn't that all most people need from a browser
-
Whats the advantage of Waterfox over librewolf?
-
Firefox-based https://zen-browser.app/ if you want to get fancy
-
I still find it interesting that the Vanadium browser in Grapheneos is Chromium based, with no possibility of extensions. I know this is for security reasons but it feels odd to still use chrome on my phone and Firefox everywhere else.
-
It's still the Chromium browser. Same problems, but now at the mercy of two corporations that are looking to turn a profit.
-
I have no idea either. Sure, chrome is a little faster but its a minor difference in my opinion. Been using it for a long time and have no idea why it's so unpopular.
-
Was
Isa little faster.No way it stays that way after blocking ad-blocking. Some websites genuinely take over 30s without ad block.
-
Chrome uses WebKit, safaris engine.
-
Chrome forked Webkit in 2012 to create Blink. It is reasonable to assume they have somewhat diverged since.
-
They're developed separately. It's a hard fork so I consider them different.
-
In Australia it won't save card details. And it can't natively create app shortcuts for things like Gmail, keep, whatsapp etc.
I put up with it but it's a pain compared to chrome and edge.

Brave is full of adverts for crypto and is owned by a homophobe
