Firefox says it will keep supporting uBlock Origin even as Microsoft Edge and other Chromium browsers phase it out under Manifest V3.

Sorry to be a debbie downer but I have grave concerns about the long term viability of firefox.

Sites obviously don't test against ff anymore with more and more bugs appearing in more and more sites.

I have to daily drive both ungoogled-chromium and librewolf and sadly, the number of things I need to do in chromium is increasing week by week.

Interesting, I use FF as a daily driver (with uBlock, Privacy Badger, HTTPS Everywhere) and I don’t experience common issues. I’m curious where you’re seeing problems? Maybe there’s something in your extension toolchain causing it?

i also only use FF on all my devices (w/ ublock), nearly never have problems.
