Manifest v3 update: Vivaldi is future-proofed with its built-in functionality
-
@F3R777 Opera, Chrome, Brave, Edge they all look the same to me
-
@Stardust, after using Vivaldi, every other browser seems crappy

-
@Catweazle there is only one chromium-based browser I can tolerate
-
Meanwhile Brave keeps developing and developing Brave Shields.
Their ad blocker is already very powerful, but they don't stop... until June it will be for sure on par with uBO.Procedural Filtering supported in Brave 1.73
https://brave.com/privacy-updates/31-procedural-filtering/I am curious... does anybody know if there is actually an active developer for the ad blocker in Vivaldi developer team?
I have my doubts there is anyone working actively in the ad blocker. -
Look this post and the following:

Hi, what does this mean?
We have a lot of Debian users here use Vivaldi happily. -
@mib2berlin probably bot. Also post not related to the thread.

If ublock stops working vivaldi is worth nothing.
No Ublock means no Vivaldi for me
-
@oldK You mean uBlockOrigin? There is a uBlockOriginLite version for Manifest v3.

uBlockLite does not come with an Element-Picker, which has proven to be extremely useful for me and is actually one of the few reasons I still use uBlockOrigin. The author of uBLite does not want to include it in the extension because he wants to keep it "Lite", as he should. Everyone's definition of "lite" is different. I found some heavy discussions about this feature request for uBLite.
If Vivaldi drops the manifest I'll look for a different browser, unless they are willing to add an element picker to the add-block-functionality. But Vivaldi has a small team and with the amount of things that need to be fixed or added.., I doubt that it will ever happen.

@jrkl75, I only use the Vivaldi blocker which works pretty fine, for the Element Picker I use an script which I have installed as extension, WebEraser, apart for YouTube the YouTube Embed Redirect script.
With this you are out of the Google Mv2 focus and the Store tracking. -

FYI Adguard has an element picker.

I've looked into this and after some reading (from other sources) I gave it a try. It's not bad at all. Above my expectation. A bit of a clunky (meh, maybe I should call it "different") approach to the settings compared to uBO, but overall good to work with. I'll still be using uBO for now, but at least I'll have a backup-plan in case the drop is there. (Unless this will also be "killed" by the next manifest... Who knows. Let's hope not.)
EDIT: Forgot to mention something: I can't get the LifeWire website to work with uBO, but with AG it works fine ... XD
