My favorite part of Firefox is Ublock Origin.

[-] BleakBluets@lemmy.world 127 points 7 months ago

Mine is the tail plug, but UO is a strong second.

[-] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 7 points 7 months ago

Does the plug get sent to you automatically or do you have to register somewhere?

[-] BleakBluets@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago

I was browsing for plug-ins and extensions and after I installed a bunch, it just appeared.

Which is unavailable on Chrome?...

[-] xe3@lemmy.world 31 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Google is in the process of undermining the effectiveness of uBlock Origin and other adblockers on Chrome and other Chromium browsers. I believe that change comes into effect this year.

But even before those changes were announced, uBlock Origin’s creator and main dev has stated that uBO is most capable on Firefox.

Does it work flawlessly on Android, iOS, and desktop? I'm really asking, because I ditched Chrome when it was less shitty than it currently is...

[-] Waffelson@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

mobile Kiwi browser supports desktop chrome extension but has only android version

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

All iOS browsers have to use Webkit (or did last time I checked). So there's not much of a point of running Firefox on iOS. It's basically the same browser no matter what browser it says it is.

[-] RidderSport@feddit.de 7 points 7 months ago

Isn't the EU in the process of killing that Webkit-necessity?

[-] nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

It is, but Apple being Apple, they are going all malicious compliance and will break evening else for non-Safari browsers lol

Also this only applies in EU. To use 3rd party apps stores you won't be able to leave the EU for more than 30 days at a time as well

The Orion browser for iOS is capable of using Firefox and Chrome extensions, although support can be a little spotty. Ublock works quite well though.

[-] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 6 points 7 months ago

If it still works, I believe it has been neutered

[-] nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info 1 points 7 months ago

It works 100% still as far as I can tell (my parents use Chrome with BO)

[-] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

Till June, when Google starts dropping support for manifest V2 and you’ll have to use uBO lite.

[-] nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info 1 points 7 months ago

I still firmly believe there is at least one sane engineer there who'll discourage this, knowing this will drive the last few tech-savvy users and their family members and close friends away and I will die on this hill
