rouxenator: Switched to Edge ages in the past, even on my cellphone, method higher.
Daniel: Firefox all the way in which! <3 I actually hope Firefox can develop again to a few of its recognition it as soon as had!
TJ_3rd: Once I first examine this a pair weeks in the past, I went forward and pulled the set off and totally moved over to Firefox. Now all that’s left on Chrome are a couple of company issues I can’t keep away from. At house and cellular, totally Firefox. I made 3 new FF accounts for my 3 completely different ‘profiles’ (2 private and 1 facet gig enterprise account). Sadly Firefox doesn’t permit pinning your browser profiles as shortcuts BUT you are able to do it anyway (utilizing normal Home windows shortcuts and add command-line parameters to inform FF which profile to open).
I’m by no means frightened concerning the change to V3. My ad blocker isn’t topic to the modifications. It really works on a system/DNS stage. Modifications that Chrome makes can’t have an effect on that. Chrome is tremendous handy for every thing else, so I cannot be switching, and I’ll get pleasure from the identical ad-free expertise I’ve at all times had, each on PC and Android.
?? Dave64 ??: If cheat makers can present cheats for video video games that bypass anti-cheat software program, I’ve religion builders will be capable of determine a approach to bypass Manifest v3.
