Iam still using vanadium
If only there’s a different web browser one can use… 🤔🤔
Netscape Navigator baby 😎
The Firefox forks that I use:
- LibreWolf ships with uBlockOrigin by default.
- Zen browser for power users who want lots of out of the box features and customization. An especially excellent browser for users who migrate from Vivaldi. Caveat, as with most feature-rich things, the line between bloat and feature can be a bit blurred.
Switch to firefox.
I would so love if this causes an usage spike for Firefox, so that all websites and webapps start testing for Firefox compatibility again…
The install counts for ad block extensions is surprisingly lower than you’d think.
uBlock only peaked just shy of 30M users, so much less than 1% of general users. Obviously it’s not that cut and dry, but you get the idea. It’s unlikely they have much influence no matter where they go.
You’re saying there are 3 billion Firefox users? That doesn’t sound right. Or you mean 3 billion chrome users?
IDK that it’s much less than 1% of general users, considering it’s .4% of the total global population, and even as #1 not everyone uses Chrome on desktop (but also some people have multiple desktops…).
But your point is still valid, if the roughly 1% desktop market share shifts to FF, not a lot is likely to change.
I wonder if this will effect adnauseam.io
I switched to uBlock Origin Lite when all this shit started up, is that one going away too?
Yes
This is just straight-up incorrect. uBOL is not going away.
But it says it’s mv3 based and the article says mv2 only.
Ahh didn’t read enough of the article, the mention it specifically but also say it doesn’t allow the same level of blocking
Chrome is for work stuff, nothing else.
I can’t really research a topic for work without an adblocker. The experience is too miserable, everything is riddled with advertisements!
