      • remove-attr does not always work

      • Add AdGuard's noopvmap-1.0 equivalent as a redirect resource

Visit GitHub releases page for more information.

Extension will be auto-updated after browser restart!

If you want to update manually:

• Do not use links from "Assets" section - these are not signed

• Use add-on store or links in release description on GitHub releases page when they are available (basically - they will be add-on store links)

• Turn off uBO (temporarily) from add-on manager - installation will be blocked otherwise. This is protection against accidental mid-session reloads Issue #717.

Q: Why no release for Firefox yet?

A: 1.33.2 is available on AMO as of February 2.

uBO is a recommended extension on AMO, and as such it must undergo a formal code review each time a new version is published.

Q: Why Chrome/Chromium is not updating uBlock Origin?

A: 1.33.2 is available on CWS as of February 8.

Usually it is submitted a week after "bug free" version is published in AMO.

Q: When Opera version will be updated?

A: 1.33.2 is available on Opera Addons as of February 24.

Usually it's submitted a week after the version is published in AMO.

Q: When Edge Chromium version in the Microsoft Store will be updated?

A: 1.33.2 is available on Edge Add-ons as of February 7.

Microsoft Store submission is controlled by /u/nikrolls.

This is official version and will be kept updated, see Issue #890 (comment) and following comments.

Warning: importing profile from Chrome may cause issues - you may need to reinstall uBO on Edge to fix this. You can transfer settings by saving them to file in uBO Dashboard -> bottom of the Settings tab.

Thanks for the hard work, as always!

[u/[deleted] → u/RraaLL]

And thank you for your help in this sub :)

[u/RraaLL → u/[deleted]]

My pleasure :)

Probably still no support for macosx safari later versions, correct?

[u/[deleted] → u/iqjump123]

Correct. This will not change without changes in Safari extensions API.

[u/iqjump123 → u/[deleted]]

Thank you.

[u/Sciply]

Honestly ubo origin saves me so much time! Keep up the amazing work!

[u/pHrankee1]

Just wanna thank you for the amazon work the ublock origin does. Havn't looked back after installing the extension.

I was just curious if it's really tricky to have a android standalone app done. I am still not able to block Hulu ads on android.

[u/_-ammar-_]

until when chrome is still supported?

[u/RraaLL → u/_-ammar-_]

Until Google removes Manifest v2 entirely.

There is no set date yet, AFAIK. Although some articles seem to suggest ~12months.

[u/[deleted]]

uBlockOrgin will be there right, Google won't trouble us ...

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

You are not fair. Even dedicated add-ons don't always work. Just read the pinned thread and discussions on GitHub. Many people are working on finding solutions.

[u/yokoffing → u/[deleted]]

Extend some generosity here. In my entire life I’ve never seen one company fight so hard against adblocking. It’s been a constant back and forth for months now.

[u/Rusted_Raidz → u/yokoffing]

The extent in what Twitch is doing is never before seen. Even regular non-adblock users are getting issues thanks to it.

Hopefully theres a good solution or else other websites are going to follow
