Yea it’s mainly those that do the work actually

Still big kudos to Raymond for providing the foundations to make it all work too.

Aren’t most lists available on other browsers and ad blockers? Unless Raymond created the format

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 27 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The format currently used in adblocker predates uBO by almost a decade so no, but still, maintaining this add-on with how fast and often web browser changes, and keeping it performant must be quite the task.

I think performant is probably the key thing here. There were ad blockers before and there are alternative ones now, but the thing that sets unlock Origin apart is how light weight it is.
