I’ve been using Firefox for ages now so I don’t get it : what’s the point of using Chrome or Edge ?
Cause People. Don't. Care
Even if something gathers illegal amounts of data, and has removed all ad blocking extensions, they will just use the default.

donated for a new cubical poster. w/e year that was. was new and better for a while.
Worst part is google could kill Firefox at anytime because they provide a very large amount of Mozilla’s funding.

And that is why I still support Firefox!
I used to buy Ad Busters magazine at a local bookstore back in 1989. I've been keenly aware of, and against advertising ever since. Any site I'm forced to watch ads on because blocking no longer works, is a site I'll stop visiting.
Nothing comes close to firefox
First, screw Chrome.
BUT. These headlines are clickbait.
UBO has been disabled in Chrome for a long, long time. This is nothing new. Its old news.
Ublock Lite replaced it, and it’s not going away. It’s inferior and problematic and harder on devs, yes, but unfortunately Chrome users didn’t seem notice.
What’s being disabled is a crazy-difficult-to-enable flag that basically zero Chrome users actually used, and that only (a few) downstream Chromium forks use.
