Ditch Google trash. Go for alternatives. E.g., Firefox instead of Chrome.

May as well chop the "s" off "alternatives"

Firefox isn't going to solve the issue of overly bloated websites.

That seems like a fake website. Here is the real link: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

This website is maintained by Uros Gazvoda, founder of Futuristica, to help spread uBlock Origin - free, open-source ad blocker.

Not fake, just unaffiliated. The presented links and info seem correct to me.
ubo is also warning about a different fake page on their repo but not this one.

That's not a fake website 🤦‍♂️

It still has ManifestV2 and useful ad-blocking

Are you sure that Firefox is a good alternative, given all the things they've been doing lately? And why not fork, by the way?

Also, Google is funding Mozilla, so... yeah.

LibreWolf is great

Every other browser uses chrome and just puts their stuff on top. So you either use actual Google chrome, a rebrand (I know it's not exactly that nor that simple), or you use Firefox.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah, you're right. This is a choice without a choice, basically.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Because it's still better than Chrome? They still support ManifestV2 which is necessary for AdBlockers like uBlock to work properly

"Two Firefox tabs at the same time, man"

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

That why I have 128gb of ram — productivity. I even can open tab with youtube and oom won't kill my family.
