@bremner what do you install instead?

@bremner Firefox and Librewolf are your friends.

@bremner > sudo apt remove chromium In this case I'd recommend "apt purge" from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

@bremner And then what? Firefox is essentially owned and paid for by Google. They already have their own manifest 3 in the works. They will ultimately do whatever Google wants. Most of the forks are poorly supported. Remember that the Pale Moon archive was actually infected with a trojan? That sort of thing doesn't happen at big companies that have someone in charge of verifying security.

@bremner Why do you hit the messenger instead of the ones responsible for this mess?

@desikn@mastodon.social 2025-04-12 08:08
@bremner There is uBlock Origin Lite that works with Manifest v3.

@bremner The day I cannot use ublock origin on chrome anymore is the day I switch to firefox and never look back

@bremner so, what was your reason for using it up until now?
-
@asjo@illuminant.asjo.org 2025-04-12 11:51
Weirdly, you can just turn it on again (so far, anyway)!

@bremner uBlock Origin lite continues to work with Chromium however full fat uBlock works well with Firefox and derivative browsers 🙂🖖

@bremner On my laptop I have good and bad news. The bad news: I can't uninstall Chrome. The good news: It wasn't installed in the first place
