Who is It and why do you depend on them?

[General]

Indeed

Oh.

D:P

[Chyros]

I'm bakkkkk.

Btw does anyone know an adblocker that can still effectively block YT ads? Pref on chrome though I'll use another browser if necessary.

[General]

I have been using uBlock Origin for a long time and did not cause any issue yet.

[Chyros]

It doesn't work anymore on chrome I think.

[General]

use Edge then

[Chyros]

Edge

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

The reason the plugin stops working is because Chrome dropped support for Manifest V2. Edge are expected to follow suit, so it will break there too.

I've not been keeping a close eye on it because I don't use any plugins that are effected, but from what I understand Vivaldi and Brave have said they will carry on supporting Manifest V2.

There are also non-Chromium browsers, i.e. FireFox based browsers. Like I said the other day, FireFox have recently said they're selling your "anonymous" data, so I perhaps wouldn't recommend FireFox itself, but there are many forks of it. I personally use Zen Browser. It's still in beta, so a little buggy, but I really like it.

Thanks; yes, I remember now. I just installed Zen and it seems to work with ublock to block ads on YT successfully, so that's a win. I'm really not a fan of the browser layout so I guess I'll use it for YT only and chrome for the rest, but that's okay. As long as it blocks YT ads it's doing its most important job.

You could try LibreWolf.

I've not personally used it, but I've heard it talked about a lot as one of the main FireFox forks.

[General]

I heard Internet Explorer is quite good too.
