uBO Lite:

Filter lists update only when the extension updates (no fetching up to date lists from servers)

Many filters are dropped at conversion time due to MV3's limited filter syntax

No crafting your own filters (thus no element picker) No strict-blocked pages (worse privacy) No per-site switches No dynamic filtering No importing external lists

The war against dynamic code is so severe (no custom filters, no updates except via published & approved versions). I understand their are dangers, but as much as the ad blocking getting less powerful scares me, the fact that extensions can't do anything dynamic is insane cruel vicious & downright scum shit evil.

Protecting the users at all cost is not a viable way to operate; if web extensions are to actually create user agency, there must be a possibility of evil. I spit up on the dog shit trashfire Google hath created by outlawing all dynamic code. This is a dark despairing turning point, a place where the browser has truly abandoned a core advantage, under pathetic sad Fear Uncertainty and Doubt pretenses & I want this decision to burn forever.

It'll be interesting to see if any of Google's promises about Declarative Net Request filtering being faster prove true. If the new uBO isn't significantly faster, these people will be majorly Emperor with No Clothes-ing themselves.
