Yeah but then "only Chrome" is misleading, when it's actually "every major browser except Firefox".

Safari isn't exactly non-major. By the way, it seems like WebKit Embedded (~resource-efficient Linux port) has regained some steam due to Igalia's work over the last two years or so.

A single engine/implementation deprecated the feature. I don’t think this is particularly misleading in a hacker news context.

Brave still supports UBo though. How long they can maintain that support is an open question.

  • Non-Chrome Chromium browsers should band together and support request blocking for Mv3 at this point. It would be one compelling feature that differentiates them from Chrome.
