That summarizes it.
Time for Firefox + uBlock OriginÂ

privacy badger does the job well, even if I was using both
From what I’ve read about Manifest V3, it seems to have some pretty nice improvements over V2 though. I’ve heard Ublock lite works with V3 but isn’t quite as good as origin, anyone know of any other up and coming blockers for V3?

It is 2024 and people still somehow completely ignore that blocking ads on the browser level isn’t the only solution.
Use whatever browser you like, get OS-level blocking (hell, AdGuard is often <20$ for a entire lifetime family license with no bullshit) and be done with it.
Why let your browser – the one serving you these ads – decide what tools you should have access to when it comes to blocking them in the first place?
Long time Firefox users laughing at Google simps right now.

Brave browser is the way
Such a dramatic headline. Extension that is no longer compatible after changes, is removed from the store since it wouldn’t work anyway.Â
Since Mozilla decided now to become an ad company we’re all fucked.
That’s why I use Firefox
Yep. Threw Chrome out ever since the first announcement.
Bye bye fuckers!
Chrome become Internet Explorer – what a timeline!
