The Adblockalypse is coming

For anyone who thinks they're "stuck" with chrome, Firefox has gotten it's shit together massively in the last few years.

it baffles me that people are still using Google Chrome.

Firefox FTW

UBlock Origin is fire

Pihole goes brrrr

Honestly just shocked how well Adblockalypse rolls off the tongue despite being the linguistic equivalent of three kids in a trench coat

This is just more of the same. Every time some company thinks they've thrown enough money at the problem to DRM their way to success, somebody inevitably finds a fix, workaround, or bypass. Sometimes within a single day.

I stopped using chrome as my primary browser years ago, and everyone should do the same.

Users when company who makes billions in profit off of ads modifies their browser to forcefully show more ads: 🤯😟

Stopped even looking at chrome since yrs. If they force their services even via chrome based browsers, I will dump their offerings as much as possible.

As long as this doesn't impact Firefox, I don't care...

Kiss my sexy Klingon ass, Google. I will forever battle ads.

Laughs in Firefox. (Specifically FireDragon)

Edit: Since there was some confusion in the comments about what FireDragon is, I will explain it here. FireDragon is the default browser on Garuda Linux. FireDragon is a fork of Librewolf, which is in-turn a fork of Firefox. Librewolf's main goal is to provide the most privacy possible to its user, though it might be at the cost of some sites breaking. FireDragon is a fork of Librewolf, it reduces some of the privacy settings that Librewolf uses, in order for sites to not break, but while still retaining most of the privacy features. dr460nf1r3 the developer of FireDragon said "This fork ships saner defaults to also include regular (not paranoid 😋) users of Garuda Linux in its audience" [1] Paragraph 2, Line 6

FireDragon from my perspective is focused around Garuda Linux, so a lot of its features are designed for users of Garuda Linux in mind.

Don't worry I'll stop using AdBlock in Chrome.

Correction: The adblockalypse is coming for people still using chromium

Baffling seeing the "well, [chromium based browser] has adblock in [X Y Z] form." Use the browser that will actually prevent this from disaster from happening again, which is Firefox.

When is it actually happening? Like, do we have a date?

They really do want us to use Firefox, don't they?

There is convenience in being used to a browser, but there is more convenience in not having to deal with ads. That's why I use Firefox on Android.

people still use chrome-based browsers?! I thought that was a thing of the past, after the privacy wars ended.

Edge on (android, not sure about iOS) mobile has "Adblock Plus" built in that can be enabled. Sure, I'd rather UBlock Origin like on my pc but when/if that stops working on Edge desktop, I wonder if they'd add a similar built in thing to desktop...
