for anyone wondering, there’s already a manifest v3 version of ublock origin available from the same developer.

Yes but ubol (ublock origin lite) , is limited in what it can block. It may or may not affect users, depending on how they had ubo configured.

See the author’s FAQ:

I only install UBO and never configure it, so perhaps UBOL will be fine

as long as you set it to ‘Optimal’ or ‘Complete’ it’s going to be able to block YouTube ads for example. that’s the main thing I missed while trying out dns adblockers and as such it’s definitely not too limited for me
