Anyone here prefer uBlock over UBlock Origin? I tried both and stuck with Origin since something like this should be relatively easy to reach "feature complete"

Anyone here prefer uBlock over UBlock Origin? I tried both and stuck with Origin since something like this should be relatively easy to reach "feature complete" status, thus go into pure maintenance mode.
Either are a big step up from ABP.
- fwn 11y agoIf you compare their repo activity, it seems to suggest that the actual development happens at origin. Origin: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/graphs/contributors https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/graphs/contributors Nonorigin: https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/uBlock/graphs/contributors https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/uBlock/graphs/contributors
- arthurfm 11y agouBlock Origin does a more thorough job at blocking network connections [1] compared to uBlock since the former disables prefetching and the latter doesn't. [2] uBlock is also missing the per-site switches and strict domain blocking features from Origin. [3] Personally I can't see any reason to use uBlock over uBlock Origin.
