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.
That's the only reason, I use it. And I knew Firefox would be the only one remaining when I switched to it the very moment, Chromium stopped supporting uBlock Origin.
Welcome, ye hordes!
Unfortunately my work machine has an ARM Snapdragon Elite (it’s way better than it has any business being) and the ARM version of Firefox does not yet seem to play well with Yubikey certificates. I tried every which way of ARM and x86-64 Yubikey certificate drivers but none resolved my issues. I believe FIDO2 works, but some of our applications still require certificate authentication.
Still works just fine on Vivaldi. Only problem is every few updates they break it and it needs to be reinstalled. I've lost a bit of faith in Vivaldi for doing this. It's one thing if they can't code around the chromium core to allow it, but since it still works and the updates are just disabling it I think that's pretty dirty.
For everyone using Firefox, are you using it with microG or some type of sandbox? Even when going private, you can't download it unless you have Google Play services on mobile. Ive tried to see if it works without google and unfortunately it dosent. If that's the case for mobile, then technically we really shouldn't be using it either.
Less incentive to fight it for website developers.
