Doesn’t seem like a terribly difficult choice. Firefox it is.

It is referring to the new uBlock Origin Lite compatible with Manifest v3.

I think it does, but only blocks competing advertisers
(Note: I actually have no clue if they do and I’m talking out my ass; that said, I would absolutely not be surprised one bit if they did exactly that)
