Update: Raymond Hill has since confirmed the extra burden was exactly the reason to call it quits in this case too.

> Looks like the sentence "however trivial this may look to an outsider, it's a burden I don't want to take on" is lost on many who want to have an opinion about all this.
> I dropped support for uMatrix years ago because it had become a burden I couldn't take on. This is such a case here, the unwarranted de-listing of uBOL and the requirement of having to deal with this caused the support to maintain a Firefox version to cross the line into the "burden I can't take on" territory. Amount of burden to take on is a personal decision, not something to be decided by others.

Remember why uBlock Origin exists in the first place: Raymond Hill was fed up with the chore of all the administrative crap around the extension. They wanted it to be a hobby and it started feeling like a job¹.

So it’s predictable they’d get fed up with what the Mozilla review process and call it quits too.
Which led them to hand the project to an unscrupulous rando that immediately tried to monetise it, leading Raymond to hate the outcome and having to decry his own previous project and ending up essentially where it all started but with a bunch of extra work in the middle.

And that's just one of the examples; another resulted in me having to add a preprocessor that removes code at build-time, which was annoying. I like Firefox, but it wasn't always easy to justify the effort.
