What does this mean for other chromium browsers like Vivaldi? I like Vivaldi.
Google is not killing uBlock Origin, it is making its Chrome browser even less user friendly. Just use Firefox or a Firefox fork.
Who thought it was a good idea to let an internet ad company control our internet client?

I wonder if the web itself may bifurcate. Corporate, government, and most NGO websites will only respond to corporate browsers that run sanctioned DRM binary blobs to “verify” their “safety”. And then there is us, with our websites and our web clients.

It seemed a lot more reasonable 15 years ago. The default on Windows at the time of Chrome's rise was Internet Explorer.
I am watching Ladybird with great interest. The world needs a new-from-the-ground-up browser.
Either ground-up or a hard fork. Or both. Both is good.

Librewolf is fine for now, but it is small tweaks tracking FF’s codebase. I think that given Mozilla’s trajectory, at some point someone will have to do a hard fork.
Someone could do a hard fork of Chromium now, for that matter, but I’m not aware of any so far.
Here's hoping this pushes more people to Firefox
The www has already gone to shit anyway thanks to SEO bullshit websites and AI generated garbage. Most of my online interactions are via applications these days. The more these companies ruin the www the less I find myself using a web browser.
What is this "chrome" thing I keep reading about? Be right back, my wolf needs to be fed.
I know people who don't care about ublock so I guess it's not relevant. People who care about ad blockers should just move to Firefox or brave
Brave is chromium
Yea but someone brave is doing exceptional work. They still got a good Adblocker
Brave has a built-in adblock. No extensions required.
is Brave's ad blocker as good as UO?
Can't complain. Been using it for ages now and I am happy with the experience
