...Okay. Technically, that's true, going by strict semantics.
But the Helium and Ungoogled Chromium are going to lose MV2, soon. I feel like "still supports uBlock Origin" doesn't sufficiently convey that to Lemmy commenters trying to read the situation. That's all I meant, though I was perhaps imprecise with my words.
In other words, practically, if a users want to use UBO, they should know these browsers will not support that in the near future even if, strictly speaking, they support it right this second.
I believe this means Brave will lose support too, unless they intend to extensively modify Chromium to maintain compatibility themselves (which would be odd, as Brave doesn't really need UBO since it has its own adblocking engine?)
