Wrong link. But Mozilla is not going to kill uBlock Origin too. Firefox supports the old MV2 and new MV3 version for extensions.

Hoping this could maybe help convince my friends who are just looking for a chromium alternative and won’t even consider firefox

Just a heads up, you posted this 5 times here and 3 times on lemmy.ml

Ohh this might! Thank you :)
I never used those, but I have been using Winger for a while. Not a strong recommendation, but I am continuing to use it. I also heavily abuse tab searching and switching via the awesomebar.

Vivaldi, which is Chromium-based, has a built-in ad blocker.
