  by Chrome they usually mean chromium and all of its derivatives since those will also get mv3 unless they specifically opt out

  both privacy and security are important and neither one is going to save you from a social engineering attack.

  and besides, trusting on your users to only go to well known websites isn’t something you should rely on.

  but yeah, I totally get your point

  as long as you set it to ‘Optimal’ or ‘Complete’ it’s going to be able to block YouTube ads for example. that’s the main thing I missed while trying out dns adblockers and as such it’s definitely not too limited for me

  there are many reasons to prefer chromium based browsers, security being one of them

  am not saying that firefox is inherently bad, but that there are valid reasons to use something else. I know that this is considered a hot take on lemmy but it needs to be said

  for anyone wondering, there’s already a manifest v3 version of ublock origin available from the same developer.

  tbh Google isn’t blocking ad blockers with manifest v3.
