Before people take this at pure headline value:
"uBlock Origin fans can rest at ease since a new and improved version is already available — uBlock Origin Lite. It's worth noting that while the new app ships with similar features to the original version, including core ad-blocking features, it doesn't support dynamic filters for blocking scriptlet injection. The Lite version's capabilities are relatively limited due to its compliance with the Manifest V3 framework threshold."
- amarshall 2y ago“Improved version…capabilities are relatively limited”. Who writes this stuff? The Lite version is only “improved” in the sense that it works with Manifest v3. It’s certainly not a replacement for the original, and the original isn’t going anywhere.
- LeoPanthera 2y agoThe word "improved" seems to be misused here.
- BLKNSLVR 2y agoGoogle's advertising revenue has been improved by this Lite version of uBlock Origin. According to Google's lens, the Internet has been improved by Manifest V3. User Hostility has been strongly improved. The on-going rate of enshittification-of-all-the-things has been improved by Google's actions for a number of years.
