🚨🚨 BREAKING: Google Chrome to kill uBlock Origin for good 🚨🚨

[t3rcermillenium@mastodon.social]

@elduvelle @Vivaldi @alexadeswift @Tutanota Chromium is the (Google controlled) open source project that Chrome is based on. As is Edge, Opera, etc.

Google adds proprietary code to Chromium and releases it as Chrome.

Vivaldi takes Chromium Stable, adds its own features, and releases it as Vivaldi.

It’s only a matter of time until Vivaldi loses support for Manifest V2 (unless Vivaldi commit to maintaining support themselves, but I haven’t heard anything about that)

@Tutanota woo, I'm pretty happy being out of this company - and pretty sad cos I remembered those times when I migrated my main inbox mail from outlook to gmail (thinking on fresh alternatives and open market, bla bla) psss what a waste - +2 years using --> https://librewolf.net/ have a look on it guys

@Tutanota I prefer Librewolf (pc) and Fennec (mobile), both with uBlock Origin

[alexadeswift@lgbtqia.space]

@elduvelle

Vivaldi does use the Blink engine, which is a Google product

@t3rcermillenium @Vivaldi @Tutanota

[cynical13@social.vivaldi.net]

@Tutanota

Zen on desktop, Waterfox on Android.

[alemarcati@mastodon.social]

@t3rcermillenium @alexadeswift @Tutanota brave is also chromium based

[ftranschel@norden.social]

@Tutanota #Librewolf it is. Wonder why it doesn't make your list.

[kjhank@social.vivaldi.net]

@MediaActivist No problem, here are some of the lists I use personally:

@Tutanota @Vivaldi

[julesbl@mastodon.me.uk]

@Tutanota
Firefox
Waterfox
Will probably move totally to Waterfox soon

[s10n@mastodon.social]

@Tutanota
Sorry, no other browser comes even close to the usability of Vivaldi (on the desktop).

At least that one will still come with an in-built adblocker - and with a pi-hole in my network, I don't see the problem (a.k.a. "ads") anyway.

[vash@mstdn.games]

@t3rcermillenium
So is Brave - afaik also based on Chromium?

@alexadeswift @Tutanota

[mediaactivist@todon.eu]

@kjhank @Tutanota @Vivaldi That's gold! Much appreciated!

I use Brave; it's great.

[nicolaottomano@mastodon.uno]

@Tutanota

@librewolf on PC
Ironfox on Android

[ismondo@mastodon.uy]

@Tutanota #vivaldi @Vivaldi @jon

Sorry, but you can't recommend Brave.

[wcbdata@vis.social]

@Tutanota Vivaldi, of course.
