@blag@typo.social this is the default Chromium popup. We have actually patched Chromium to prolong life in Vivaldi so that users have enough time to export data and find suitable alternatives. You can re-enable it in your extensions manager for now, but it looks like the end of life is near. We've been transparent about it since the beginning, we said we would support mv2 for as long as we could, and Google has been postponing it for years, but once they pull the plug for good, we don't have the resources to maintain this. Some people are content with uBlock Lite, which is mv3. You can of course use our built-in adblocker (and tracker blocker), which is there in the first place to reduce dependency on external extensions. You can add custom lists to it. We've been constantly working on updating it but moving forward, we are going to prioritize some changes to make it even better.

@blag@typo.social Vivaldi is built on top of Chrome, so when Google made changes to Chrome to make UBO no longer supported it affected Vivaldi
