Google Chrome is looking to finish off the various bypasses that help uBlock Origin and other such MV2 extensions to keep functioning. Edge and Opera could soon follow too.
I switched to Waterfox on desktop when Firefox threatened to move to “AI-First”. Firefox walked back that shitty decision when they saw the user backlash from it, but I never saw a compelling reason to switch back.
I’ve been using exclusively since the early 2000s.
On Android, it’s about 10x the size of Chrome. I’m guessing that’s because Chrome uses the OS internals (chromium) for rendering while Firefox rolls its own (gecko).
Firefox still does manifest v2 so adblockers still have full power.
If you haven’t moved already, I recommend Firefox or one of its forks.
I rly like firefox, I have been using for the last two years.
