from TFA:

    Filter lists update only when the extension updates, no fetching up to date lists from servers (this is a big one!)

    No custom filters, so no element picker which allows you to point and zap

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

    No strict-blocked pages

    No per-site switches

    No dynamic filtering

    No importing external lists

These aren't accurate. My version of uBOL in Chrome (2025.718.1921) has these features.

You're either not using uBlock Origin Lite or do not know what the "per-site switches" are: https://github.com/gorhill/ublock/wiki/Per-site-switches

Ah, so uBOL does have the ability to adjust the blocking level on a per-site basis, which is what I assumed "per-site switches" meant. I see now that the original uBO has/had a more granular level of configuration available. (Which I suspect most folks never used, but still... my bad there.)
