uBlock Origin is no longer available on the Chrome Store
Separate reply that ritual impurity or blind black-box rejection of open source Chromium/Blink seems also to suffer from emotionalism over reason. See

This is a choice we made. As I wrote in my last reply, I think we would have died trying to get Gecko/Graphene with a Web front end up to competitive scratch vs. Chrome (nm Firefox).
A Firefox fork would have gone over badly with some potentially large number of Mozilla/Firefox fans, and we'd still lack key elements not part of the Mozilla open source (at the time, e.g., Adobe's CDM for HTML5 DRM). On the upside we'd have more UX customizability.
But our choice of Chromium/Blink (via Electron, so we had Web front end upside without Firefox extensions) was not a slam dunk choice. It involved trade-offs, as all engineering does. The downside is we have to audit and network-test for leaks and blunders, which often come from Chromium upstream:

Tell HN: I just updated my wife's Chrome, and uBlock is no longer supported
At the very least, I do not trust a browser that was putting affiliate links to unsuspecting users' urls [0]. Plus I tbh I am really sick of everything tending to be chromium-derivatives nowadays and I think it is good to have greater diversity, to exactly avoid situation susch as the one here.

Trying to do Larger contributions to Open Source
One example was an issue in the Brave Browser project to add a policy for disabling a feature. The documentation provided clear instructions, so I decided to give it a try. After cloning the repositories, one for the whole project and the other containing the actual browser code which is a fork of chromium (it was HUGE). I installed the necessary tools (like depot_tools) and packages needed by Chromium. Despite realizing early on that the project was massive, I decided to give it a shot.
