Only on Chrome. Switch to Firefox with uBock Origin and keep blocking those ads!
Edit: Updated the uBlock Origin link to point directly to the addon page
Already on LibreWolf on desktop and IronFox on mobile. Ads, what ads?
Visiting that page with uBlock Origin enabled now warns that it’s not official so I wouldn’t trust it. I usually send people to https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock#readme instead.
Huh, that it does. Thank you for catching that.
I just updated the link to point directly to the FF uBlock Origin addon page.
Every time I browse the web without ad blocking, I am so flooded by ads that I start to wonder if whatever I’m doing is worth the hassle.
I really hope this blows up in Google’s face. They’ve gotten away with everything for too long.
why would anyone even use it without blockers?
If you want to stay with a chromium browser, Vivaldi should still work
Yes! It rules!
Will this effect all chromium engine browsers, or just chrome itself?
From the article:
This will also impact other Chromium-based browsers, though the comment notes that “other browsers can continue supporting these if they so desire.” Neowin points out that Microsoft Edge and Opera are likely to follow suit.
I’ve just been sticking with Firefox since it’s open source and I trust uBlock Origin more than any other adblocker. (It even works great on Android)
I’m not at all knowledgeable enough about this topic to understand what is really being said or the result of it. Like chromium won’t support the v2 extensions anymore, but chromium-based browsers can add support for v2 extensions if they want to add that code separately, but would coders still update v2 extensions if chrome doesn’t use them? And i think it says chromium will continue using v3 extensions so why can’t the ad blockers be a v3 extension? And/or are there other aspects at play here?
Basically i just wanna know if the chromium-based browsers i use will continue being able to block ads?
Cue the Brave shills “recommending” everyone switch
