uBlock-issues VS uBlock

I answered the questions half way myself.The ext. gets disabled because it is manifest 2 not manifest 3. Manifest 2 will be disabled by ~mid 2025 in the Store.

Seeing: seeing https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/wiki/About-Goo...

And asking: What are the diff between manifest 2 and manifest 3 ext?

What is the problem to move to M3? And why is this a ban?

In general it involves setting ExtensionInstallForcelist, but I haven't tried it in practice yet, it's a concept..

These are the instructions for Windows from OP's reddit post: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/discussions/29...

So much more complicated.

Github URL: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock

You should look into the homepage linked from there https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock because that's were it's really from, and not some recommendation via.

Especially their Wiki, because that contains really useful information, how to handle more advanced stuff, which can't really be done 'automagically' for all sorts of websites. Maybe even their reddit also linked from the mozilla site, though I'm guessing you're not fond of the latter.

You could also consider using https://librewolf.net/ instead of Firefox, because that's built and delivered with much desired settings, while the undesired stuff is left out.

Which you'd have otherwise to setup manually, put together piece-wise from countless different places, because there is no place who has it all. By the way, they have their own redddit, too.

Which leads to less hassle with system management problems. Not to speak of being delivered with uBlock Origin out of the box.

Works really well for me, and I'm picky, because I've grown bored with systems management problems, too ;)

Methods to enforce ExtensionManifestV2Availability on Linux for Chromium (and variants) and Chrome: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/discussions/29...

If anyone is wondering why uBlock Origin is no longer available for Safari, since version 13, see:

uBlock Origin always worked best in Firefox anyhow:

With these internet connections, I really hope the local techies are helping set people up uBlock Origin, running something like ClearURLs to short-circuit unnecessary redirects (I assume GEO latency), and running LocalCDN to avoid re-downloading the same libraries and assets over and over. Probably also good to install something that defaults Youtube to 360p, and Pihole for mobile/smart devices.

I would run uBO in Medium Mode[1], but I expect that's probably too much for most non-technical users.

*uMatrix is unmaintained, and uBlock Origin can do fine-grained control – it just requires the “advanced user” setting for some reason, even if you expand the panels all the way. https://github.com/gorhill/ublock/wiki/quick-guide:-popup-us... (see “I am an advanced user!” expanding section at the bottom)

No issues here on Firefox 128.4.0esr, even with uBlock Origin medium mode[1] blocking 31% of the page.
