Guys, just FYI - other adblocks still work. I'm using Ghostery on Vivaldi (Chromium-based) and it works perfectly fine, including blocking ads during YouTube videos.
No idea why uBlock specifically is being blocked, but it's not like you can't have an ad-blocker anymore.
For one thing UBO, if you take the time to (turn on and) learn the advanced user mode, will let you customize interactions site-by-site, and remember your choices for years.EG I regulary use the zapper and eyedropper to get rid of stuff other than ads. It's also easy to turn on/off site-by-site.
The man deserves a medal for the time he's put in literally saving the internet for so many millions.
Eye-dropper and HTML cuts are not affected by Manifest v3, no?
