uBlock Origin developer recommends switching to Firefox as Chrome flags the extension - eviltoast

~~https://www.neowin.net/news/ublock-origin-developer-recommends-switching-to-ublock-lite-as-chrome-flags-the-extension/~~

EDIT: Apologies. Updated with a link to what gorhill REALLY said:

Manifest v2 uBO will not be automatically replaced by Manifest v3 uBOL[ight]. uBOL is too different from uBO for it to silently replace uBO – you will have to explicitly make a choice as to which extension should replace uBO according to your own prerogatives.

Ultimately whether uBOL is an acceptable alternative to uBO is up to you, it’s not a choice that will be made for you.

Will development of uBO continue? Yes, there are other browsers which are not deprecating Manifest v2, e.g. Firefox.

    What about 7 year olds?

    Is it just 6 year olds we need to handhold docker image launching?

    I understand Chromebooks are standard and I desire that to change, hence this entire thread you’ve been commenting on.

    I seem to interact with you a lot, and sometimes it feels like you get lost in all the posts and comments you make and lose focus of the entire conversation at hand.

      Expecting all, or even most, children in an elementary school to understand that is silly.

      All I can think is you’ve never raised any children if you think most six or seven-year-olds could understand that.

      School, again, is supposed to be about fairness, not catering to the smartest kids.
