now it’s time to consider

now? xD . There were so many discussions about this in these forums over the last years, not much was done.

Based on input from the extension community, we also increased the number of rulesets for declarativeNetRequest, allowing extensions to bundle up to 330,000 static rules and dynamically add a further 30,000.

sounds good, nobody will notice and everyone will just continue using all the Chromium-based browsers. We are talking about the Microsoft Windows crowd after all, 99% just don't care (soon️ recording what you are doing with your PC is coming to you)...

I know. Hence, why it is even more important now than before. This will also affect iOS and android versions too if vivaldi improve their adblocker, so I don’t see the reason not to improve it. There is so much to gain from it.
