Gareth 🏴🇬🇧<p>I've just noticed my <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@Vivaldi" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Vivaldi</span></a></span> browser saying that uBlock Origin and ScriptSafe are going to stop working in the near future, which is disappointing as I thought they were going to keep support for them.</p><p>So my question is... what <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>browser</span></a> can I use now? OR, what plugins do I need to replace the soon-to-be-dead ones?</p><p>I've got Safari for a backup, but that's got pretty terrible <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/plugin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plugin</span></a> support so I've never really used it as a primary browser.</p><p><a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/Firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Firefox</span></a> seems to be enshittifying as fast as they can, <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/Chrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chrome</span></a> and <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/Edge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Edge</span></a> are both crap from a privacy point of view. All the other <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/Chromium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chromium</span></a> browsers are based on Chrome and thus also lose the <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/ManifestV2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ManifestV2</span></a> support.</p><p>I don't have millions of plugins I need, but blocking scripts seems a fairly essential feature in the web of 2025 and I don't know what other options there are at the moment...</p><p>Oh, and if the Safari mention earlier didn't give it away, I'm on an Apple Silicon Mac (and have no intention of moving to Linux ;) )</p>
