It was mostly /g/ pranking the github with issues like petitions to call it "micro-block"

I hope they improve Firefox port. Ublock for Firefox on android has been shit for me

On 0.9.2.3 at the moment, Firefox. I'm not updating until this settles down.

The new maintainer is really fucking shady. He didn't do jack shit, but immediately claims that uBlock is his work and plastered donation buttons all over the place. Fuck that guy.

>>47342320
>immediately claims that uBlock is his work

This did not happen.

>>47342330
Yes it did, on his website. Paraphrasing, "Made with love and care by Chris" or some shit like that, only if you dig more in the website you find a sentence in a tiny tiny font that says "originally developed by gorhill".

>>47342330
On his site it's plastered everywhere

>I'M CHRIS. I CARE ABOUT DESIGN, INTERACTION, AND USER EXPERIENCE. SOME OF WHAT I MAKE: UBLOCK.
>MADE WITH LOVE AND CARE BY CHRIS.
>donation buttons on every page

Fucking kike

It clearly says it's originally developed by gorhill, but yeah, but it is weird to say "made" instead of "maintained"

Yes. Go to https://chrismatic.io/ and you find this

I think he's capable. He's the guy that did the work on the fennec/firefox mobile port.

>>47342594
what happened to Deathamns, I wish he continued to maintain the firefox version, he's the one that made it possible to have it on firefox in the first place.

>>47342636

His disappearance is still a mystery though.

So what's le current meme ad blocker /g/?

I don't want to be behind the times

He could have handled it much better, at any rate.

>>47343093
ABE.

>gets fucking told by people that know ublock doesn't really block anything (seriously, check your browser cache and enjoy all those lovely ad images you don't see when you use ABP with the "non intrusive ads" disabled WHICH IT FUCKING TELLS YOU ABOUT ON INSTALL AND IS UP FRONT WITH WHAT IT'S FUCKING DOING UNLIKE UBLOCK WHICH IS A SNEAKY FUCK THAT ISN'T DOING SHIT TO KEEP ADS FROM TRACKING YOU).
>gets mad and lol drama trying to divert attention from this TRUTH
uBlock is dead. It's an addon that gets money from ad servers to hide ads because seeing ads isn't where the money comes from, it comes from tracking users which hiding ads instead of blocking them allows.

Report any pro-uBlock thread as viral advertising by these fucking disgusting piles of shit and make sure they never do anything with technology ever again in their goddamn pathetic loser lives.

Can we get real for a moment and realize that the only reason /g/ is so hard on Chris is because his last name sounds like Jewdie?

>>47343112
sup ABP shill

Can /g/ critize anything or anyone at all without resorting to the good ol' antisemitism?

Why not just use an adblock that doesn't freeze the browser for 5 seconds everytime it loads a page?

>>47343189
Don't be so anal.

>>47343166
No, the reason we are hard on that motherfucker is because instead of "made with love and care by gorhill. (maintained by Chris)", he takes all the credit with "made with love and care by Chris. (originally developed by gorhill)."

Look at his update since he look over. It's all edits to the readme and messages for donation begging, nothing else. He even fucked over the translation efforts by making people do direct edits.

>>47343112
>uBlock is dead. It's an addon that gets money from ad servers to hide ads because seeing ads isn't where the money comes from, it comes from tracking users which hiding ads instead of blocking them allows.

Hello ABP shill. You may have succeeded in pissing off gorhill with your Jew tactics, but he is still going to continue.

uBlock shill detected. Typical. Just give up, your fucking cancerous software has been found out.

>people saying ublock only hides ads

Until now I've been doubtful but I just saw a 4chan ad appear that only went away when I F5'd the page. Using uBlock for Firefox 0.9.2.3

>>47343267
it does block connections but the first time it encounters a connection you might see it at least momentarily read the FAQ

>>47342363
>being compensated for hundreds of hours of hard work is evil.
whatever you say, kid.

>>47343340
he is far, far behind gorhill and deathamns in terms of amount of work put into this project and they never asked for a dime. the first (and only thus far) thing chris al juden does upon becoming maintainer is put "uBLOCK: MADE BY CHRIS - GIBE MONIES" everywhere.

>>47342376
He changed it. Originally it didn't credit gorhill

>>47343300
But then it has already let the ad through, before hiding it. That's bullshit.

>>47343584
only the first time, once it's in the database you will never see it again. Read the FAQ

>>47343834
Not good enough when there are other blockers that don't have the same issue.

Tried it, found out about all the shady shit, got rid of it. They keep coming up with new ways to enslave us, it's a real man's job to fight this and you can't expect a /g/ meme (uBlock) to do a real man's job. I'm so glad I went back to adblock plus, God bless The United States of America.

>>47343910
well meme'd

>pointless drama over the development of a browser extension

Alternatively, just use HOSTS blacklisting and never have to worry about keeping extensions up to date in the first place.

http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts2.htm

Wouldn't that be a lot easier than having to migrate from one extension to another due to constant changes in policy, the developer introducing bloat or adware, etc.? This is the method of ad-blocking I've used for over a decade, and it's always worked fine for me.

>>47343947
>big blank spaces everywhere

>>47343947
Cosmetic element hiding is a major part of any ad blocker.

>>47343947
No you just have to worry about keeping your host file up to date instead. Which thing requires more maintenance? The block lists or the addon?

>>47343947
>>Alternatively, just use HOSTS blacklisting

lol

>>47343990
a cron job or bash script wouldn't be hard to make, would it? nevertheless, i still like the cosmetic filters so i'll stick with ublock

>>47343990

I usually go months without updating my HOSTS file. Nothing has slipped past the radar so far, though.

You can automate the process with a batch file, at any rate.

>/g/ is now in full screaming autistic seizures over this whole situation, making it even worse for gorhill and lowering the chances of a Firefox port being available in the future as gorhill has distanced himself from the overall project, along with Deathamns.
Ahahaha. That's fucking hilarious after all the shilling about how much better it is than adblock.

>>47344914
It's still better than adblock plus though that hasn't changed at all. The fact that two devs left doesn't mean the project has degraded in performance or usefulness.

>blaming /g/

I sometimes wonder how stupid op can be

Seeing as gorhill released his own 0.9.3.0 version without all the changes made by Chris, I bet he regrets giving up ownership.

>>47345124
Note his repo doesn't have an issue tracker. He doesn't miss the old repo at all. All those crying bitches are chris' problem now

>>47345140
Sounds good to me.

Just an FYI from the Chrome store:

Pretty much. I see no point in using Chris' version.

Another fine project killed by asper/g/ers and sjws.

>>47345513
It's fine. gorhill did the old switch-a-roo.

>>47345427

Most important hurdle is getting the Firefox version prepared for full review. Hopefully Alex has the patience, because holy shit AMO is slow as molasses.

>>47342066
nobody uses firefox anyways

>>47345124
>all the changes made by Chris
Did you actually look at those changes he made? It's all other than changing app links it's all readme changes to make it look like jew made it it and plastered donation buttons everywhere.

Why would gorhill put that in? Fucking retard.
