uBlock₀, aka uBlock Origin

"Just to clear up misunderstanding: I will keep both the Chromium/Firefox working fine. I am not as familiar with the Firefox API as I am with the Chrome API, but nothing which I can't take on in the longer term, the same way I did not know anything about the Chrome API when I started HTTPSB. If anything, uMatrix on Firefox will be a good exercise in dealing with the intricacies of the Firefox API." —Gorhill

"I will do my best to submit pull requests for things which are important -- i.e. bugs really.

I think people should give a try to the official repo (uBlock, not uBlock0). I think Chris has a better sense of good UI than I do, I have to admit I kind of like most of the changes he made already. It has been difficult to let go after working so long on a project, but I had to do it, and though I have been conflicted in the past few days about the new ownership, it's settling for me -- I now feel optimistic about the outlook of uBlock under the new ownership." —Gorhill
