Good to know. Does anyone have any alternatives while staying on chrome?

Reminder that there are three browsers.
Firefox, Chromium, and Safari.
Everything else either builds off Firefox (uncommon), or Chromium (extremely common, including Edge for example).
The only sane alternative for non-Apple devices is to switch to Firefox.

I dumped Chrome years ago when it was pushing my MacBook Pro to swap memory for no damn reason.

You mean the Chrome that’s installed on my personal computer? They’re disabling something on my personal computer without my permission?

Switched to Brave. It’s been good overall, but it sometimes blocks stuff like bank account verification.
edit: Just a reminder to do some research before downvoting. Brave offers strong privacy and security features that go beyond just basic ad blocking.

I’ve been using Firefox since forever. I’m also still using old reddit… I’m a boomer.

Anyone that was conscious enough in the first place to install ublock origin will see this move by Google as detrimental to their internet experience. This will only push these people to ditch chrome and adopt a new web browser. I hope Mozilla can monetize this influx of new users.

I only use Chrome for Chromecast. Are there any other options to cast to a tv? I haven’t found any that are great.

Makes me wonder if anyone will make a new browser once all major players start blocking adblockers.

Sucks. There is uBlock Origin Lite if you still use Chrome, but it’s not as capable.
If you move to Firefox, you can keep uBlock Origin.

Imagine not using Firefox.

Man I thought Edge was decent, then again it’s basically internet explorer with a facelift

Curious if he will finally develop for safari, since safari still support regular Adblockers

Google already makes money off You & I through data collection, regardless whether or not you watch ads or not. So be sure to switch browsers and use Adblock.

I’d like to switch, but my fear is that Google will eventually force you to use Chrome if you want access to their other app like Google Docs and Drive.

But at this point, I’m open to alternatives.
As if I needed another reason to use Firefox lmao
And I started uninstalling Chrome. Byeee
Time to enable Firefox + uBlock Origin
