To be fair it’s been less than a day, one of the great things about internet messaging is how asynchronous it can be, it’s great for calming anxieties about needing to come up with a reply immediately like if you’re on the phone or something x.x
You’re right though, I don’t reply to things often enough, partly because I’m very sick with COVID at the moment but also a lot of it is my social anxiety and fear of rejection.
I get so scared of what people might say that I avoid looking at the replies, even when I initially reach out because I want to interact with people and form connections ><
It’s one of my big problems that I need to overcome, I’m still working out how to tackle it, but I do know it’s a problem, and it’s mine to solve.
Alas I can’t afford things like therapy, so I just have to stumble around trying to figure my ADHD, possibly autistic (wish I could get seen for a diagnosis…), anxious, dumb ass brain out 😅
I’m sorry in the mean time for being a bit annoying, I don’t mean to be on purpose :-)
Agreed. Especially considering uBlock origin is pretty much the main reason to use FF at all. They shouldn’t be delegating reviews of it to someone who would fuck up this badly.
Assuming this wasn’t a “test the waters” kind of thing to determine just how much they were reliant on ublock.
I’ve been using the main FF build for a while now but I’m wondering if I should start looking at the various fork options.
I thought that was the shit Chrome was doing to block adblockers and antimalware plugins, if Firefox is doing the same thing what browser do we use now? :-(
I don’t care about all the browser wars stuff, I lost interest when it was Netscape Vs IE, I just want a browser that I can configure fully myself and have it be as safe and secure as one can make it, within reason.

They’re doing a modified version of V3 that they changed to restore ad-blocking functionality.
Probably due to automatic extension reviews by Mozilla.
Sad that it happened, but at least it doesn’t impact the actual uBlock, only the lite version for which I honestly see no purpose in Firefox anyways.
It was a manual review conducted by an actual person that in the end admitted they were wrong
Oh okay, not a good look.
Are you like, those old multi colour swirly rubber balls we used to get out of 20p machines as kids? Those were ill!
I don’t understand what you are telling me
It’s a reference to your username
Ahhh
And he just leaves them hanging.
I’m referring to the users asking the questions.

Where does it say it was a manual review?
In the original post on GitHub it’s mentioned that it was a manual review
Good to know! I wasn’t sure if it was automated or not. That’s rough.
It’s to circumvent ManifestV3.
Manifest v2 still works on Firefox, so OP was right, it’s useless
The dev stated that it mostly exists for more performance-limited applications like mobile.

Firefox is not eliminating MV2 extensions. You can stick with Firefox.
If we want to do something radically different, there’s always gopher and gemini browsers.
They’re doing a modified version of V3 that they changed to restore ad-blocking functionality.
Theoretically, the browser executes the Mv3 blocking rules, so it could be optimized and more efficient than js ever could.
