This means, among other things, that uBlock Origin is about to be disabled in Chrome. Google will choose a different extension to recommend but it can not be as effective as #uBlock Origin.
Following #Google's example, may I instead recommend you switch to #Firefox.
Firefox will continue to support Manifest v2, and consequently uBlock Origin and other extensions that can not be implemented with Manifest v3.
@pointlessone While I certainly do not agree with the forced move to V3, according to the article, #uBlockOrigin does already support V3. Or is there a misunderstanding?
Yesterday, at home, I was able to use #Vivaldi 's built-in adblocker fine on Youtube. Come in to the office today, and I had to shut it off because videos are inaccessible. #UBlockOrigin and #PrivacyBadger by #EFF work just fine though.
I'd love to not have to use other extensions, but looks like we're not quite there at the moment.
Ich habe einem neuen Kollegen den Rechner eingerichtet. Zum surfen gibt es den Firefox mit add ons.
Nach wenigen Stunden kam er an: wie hast du das gemacht. #werbung weg, #cookiebanner gehen von alleine weg. Das brauche ich zu Hause auch.
Kurzer #crashkurs in #ublockorigin#cookieautodelete und #idontcareaboutcookies .
Kollege: Geht das auch auf dem #smartphone ?
Noch ein schneller crashkurs in #fdroid und #adaway .
Mal schauen es er daraus macht.
Wow #AdBlockPlus has turned into a spammy up-sell pile of plop. I usually have #uBlockOrigin but there's a few computers I've used recently where an ancient install of #ABP is installed, all it seems to do is serve its own upsell popups !
Dear @mozilla
Please, please, please put the RSS indicator back in Firefox.
People need to know about this technology which empowers users over greedy, controlling corporations.
Update: As many have pointed out, you can use @thunderbird as an RSS feed reader, and there are many #firefox add-ons to restore the RSS indicator (one of which I'm already using). But my point is that Firefox needs to lean into RSS as an answer to all the crap that is the modern web, and help educate users about it
Online-Tools zur Messung der Wirksamkeit von Ad-Blockern sind leider wenig praxistauglich und liefern in Kombination mit Browser-Add-ons oft irreführende Ergebnisse. Am besten verzichtet man auf sie und verlinkt sie auch nicht, da gerade Anfänger/Einsteiger davon irritiert werden könnten. Empfehlt stattdessen die Installation von uBlock Origin und anderen zuverlässigen Ad-Block-Lösungen. 👇
Just finished helping my grandfather solve some of his issues with #thunderbird. He didn't know how to create lists of contacts. I quickly set this up and closed maybe 1000 tabs (I don't know how he opened that many). I was also surprised to see he still uses #Firefox, although all his extensions were gone. Reinstalled #Bitwarden, #uBlockOrigin and #istilldontcareaboutcookies. Now he's fully open sourced again. He even mentioned that he thought about sponsoring Thunderbird.
Sometimes I go entire days without realizing how my experience using a web browser is vastly improved by various third-party tweaks. My sanity is at least partially preserved thanks to the work of all these extension developers; they are the true unsung heroes of the modern internet.
Non, mais ça va pas, non, #Numerama !!??
824 « partenaires » ?
Sérieux ???
824 vautours que tu vas autoriser à piller nos données personnelles, tous ça pour mieux nous afficher des pubs et nous profiler.
Avec un joli #DarkPattern en prime, pour cacher le « Continuer sans accepter » en petit en haut à gauche, de la même couleur que le bandeau pour être moins visible.
@alainmi11
Le pire "dark pattern" que je connaisse c'est celui du site de partage de fichiers "1fichier". Lorsque je ne peux pas faire autrement pour récupérer un fichier spécifique, je l'ouvre SYSTÉMATIQUEMENT en navigation privée. Je serais pas étonné que cette UI soit illégale.
Sur de "petits" écrans (11 pouces ici) l'utilisateur est OBLIGÉ d'accepter les cookies pour fermer le popup "n'attendez plus". À moins de dézoomer à 70℅… @Looping
Aujourd'hui, si vous ne le saviez pas, c'est la « Journée européenne de la protection des données » 2024.
Les principaux conseils de #CyberMalveillance :
– renforcez vos mots de passe
– faites des sauvegardes régulières
– ne négligez pas les mises à jour
@Em0nM4stodon The more I use it and learn about all the things it can do, and the more I see results from using it daily, the more I love #uBlockOrigin!

Вчера пытался перейти на Яндекс Браузер - не смог, к вечеру вернулся на @firefox.
А все из-за рекламы, которую Яндекс активно продвигает даже платным пользователям и заблочить её ни какими средствами не получается (половину плагинов удаляющих рекламу установить не возможно, приложение Adguard спокойно рекламу от Яндекс пропускает).
“Yesterday I tried to switch to Yandex Browser - I couldn’t, by the evening I returned to @firefox.
And all because of advertising, which Yandex actively promotes even to paid users and it is impossible to block it by any means (half of the plugins that remove advertising cannot be installed, the Adguard application quietly allows advertising from Yandex).
