No. But there is a new version which works essentially as well. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ublock-origin-lite/...

Switching to the lite version of the extension has been as easy as 'set and forget', for me.

I'm sure there are some differences somewhere but it seems to be working well.

I'm glad it's still an extension by Raymond Hill (gorhill), since I trust that guy more than any corporation.

He's been on everyone's browser extension list for ~a decade (?).

Thank you. Tried it on a few pages and seems to work a treat!

As far as I can tell, there is no way to continue using manifest v2 extensions. Chrome support page [1] says the deadline for enterprise support has also already passed, so it seems like they have completely disabled it.

Moving to Firefox is a great idea. If you’d rather keep on using something you’re familiar with, I’d move to Brave.

A little OT, but tangental: when I discovered uBlock didn't work on Chrome last week I downloaded Arc for the first time, and am completely blown away. Its weird how you sort of assume the standard is good enough for something and forget about other innovations. Pleasantly surprised to have discovered Arc this way.

I would try Firefox or Zen or Brave...

No. Yes. https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/About-Google-Chrome's...

If you're on Windows, run in admin PowerShell:

$path ="registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome"

New-Item $path -Force

Set-ItemProperty $path -Name ExtensionManifestV2Availability -Value 2

I still have working UBo in Vivaldi based on 138.0.7204.143

Is there an iOS ad blocker existing as well?

For Safari, there is https://adguard.com/en/adguard-ios/overview.html

There's also the beta/alpha Orion browser from Kagi: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/orion-browser-by-kagi/id148449..., which has built-in ad blocking

I like 1Blocker. I’ve downloaded it when it was an inexpensive one-time purchase, and was grandfathered when it became subscription-based. Though I believe there remains an option to pay once and keep using it “forever”, now at a slightly higher price.

The app includes both Safari ad blocking and local DNS blocking too, so it works on things like some ads on games.

I wonder this too. The ones I’ve tried so far didn’t work well.

Wipr works well for me.

Use Firefox or Brave Browser.

Google has shown you what they think of you. Why not try another browser

yeah use ublock origin lite
