- lwansbrough 7y agoJust installed it: https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/insider-addons/detail/odfafepnkmbhccpbejgmiehpchacaeak https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/insider-addons/detail/od...
- skrowl 7y agoPresumably when Chromium adds the change that destroys UBlock Origin, it will be broken on all Chromium forks. I don't see how it wouldn't, unless they added code back in on top of Chromium to support the API they're removing.
- zamadatix 7y agoThat's what other forks have committed to doing already (and have done with API changes in the past) so I don't see why you are skeptical Microsoft would be able to.
- gilrain 7y agoIndeed, of all the forks they're the most likely to have the resources to maintain a fork which diverges that much.
- rasz 7y agoBackporting is not the problem, whether Raymond Hill continue working on uBlock Origin after >90% market share vanishes overnight is.
