According to recent user reports, uBlock Origin is quickly disappearing from the Chrome Web Store. The official page for the ad-blocking extension now states that it is unavailable because it doesn’t comply with Chrome’s “best practices” for add-ons. However, we can confirm that the page is still accessible from our EU Windows client.

Problem solved, except for the sites that still refuse to work properly with established web standards.

for most of these, using an extension to pretend you are using chrome fixes the “problem”
yes, i use mostly ff but still i keep chrome. Maybe ill install brave or vivaldii for the chrome engine purpose only
Man… I switched a while back. Shits wild how many sites don’t work correctly
Edit: my wife sends me tiktok videos which doesn’t work and then a random smattering of redirects.
Some websites will tell you FF is not a supported webbrowser, this is BS more often than not. You can circumvent this by changing your User-Agent: User-Agent Switcher - addons.mozilla.org
I have not really found any…
But also, if you find sites that won’t work in Firefox, keep using them with Firefox and get others to do the same, then start complaining to the company running the site.
I edited my initial comment.
But it’s tiktok that my wife sends me and redirects. Which in absolutely not going to complain to tiktok because fuck that noise. IDC enough about that mess.
The redirects are annoying… But I just work around that in most cases
Which ones? I’ve used Firefox and Vivaldi (which is Chromium-based) interchangeably for the last couple of years, and I can’t remember noticing any difference in their ability to handle sites. The main difference I’ve noticed is that Firefox renders fonts more nicely in Linux.
