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

Why do people in these threads always act like uBlock is the only adblocker out there? It's true that MV3 nerfed adblockers in general, but not nearly as much as what I've heard about uBlock Lite. The one I've always been using hasn't really changed functionally at all from what I can tell.

Like, I see some people act like Chromium just doesn't have usable adblockers at all anymore. That's just not true.

It's not about uBlock anymore. It's about Chrome and Google. A free space should be a safe spot for everybody, not for corporations and politicians.
