Finally, an efficient blocker. Easy on CPU and memory.

    Or just use Firefox

      My work uses a web-based interface that’s very annoying to use on Firefox. I’m unfortunately tied to Chrome in the meantime, so uBlock lite is a lifesaver.

        I’m giving Floorp a try right now. It’s actually pretty good.

        Who will develop the underlying browser then?

      Firefox was stubborn enough not to support H.265 till JUST recently and only on windows… Doesn’t work with my 4k security cameras as well as Chrome or Safari based browsers.

        H.265 is patent encumbered. Blame the 2 or 3(?) patent pool holders (for-profit corporations, unlike non-profit -and-slowly-losing-market-share Mozilla) for not making it free to use for everyone.

        This is why AV1 is preferred, it saves bandwidth and there’s no threat of being sued into oblivion.
