Some years ago, the UK had a great website comparing online prices between supermarkets called MySupermarket[0]. They went closed down, but it genuinely saved me lots of money. IIRC, it even compared the prices with delivery fees. I was sad

Problem is that this needs clients to catch on. The likes of Netflix and YouTube need to add support. But I highly doubt YouTube will care. Regardless, I'm glad this exists. Hopefully in the future it becomes more prevalent.

Considering uBlock Origin was the first extension to work (and, from what I understand, they worked extra hard to ensure it works), I doubt that's the reason.
