Manifest v3 has been out for a while now, they are just blocking manifest v2. There will probably be a way to fix it, but there is always other browsers like brave that have built in adblockers that block basically anything. While people were worrying about whether they will be blocked from YouTube and ublock was having issues that were soon fixed, brave never got a single pop-up asking to disable your adblocker once. Also you can use some VPN adblockers that work through blocking it from your network like AdAway.
I think it’s a kind of parody of the things the newest generation (forget what it’s called) talks like. It isn’t supposed to make sense and probably wouldn’t even to the weird people who do talk like this for some reason.
Who buys a truck for aesthetics and not for usefulness? The tiny one might be ugly but the bigger problem is storage in the interior of the car. You don’t even have a back seat in the small one. And also I doubt that the small one can haul large amounts of weight, like a trailer, where the big one can. Just because it is dangerous doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a purpose. Now, instead of having a car for getting around, an SUV for more people, something powerful for a trailer or heavy stuff, you have one for everything that costs the same price as one of those vehicles.
That isn’t a problem with Linux, as much as I hate it. It’s a problem with Asus, which I hate more. Asus is known for having many unfixable bugs on everything they have similar to these but even this isn’t as severe as most people get where their audio will go out for days on end.
I couldn’t care less. Google does the same thing. There isn’t really much data about me anyone would care about. Their adblock is basically the only reason I use it (none of that crypto shit). The adblock has worked without fail where ublock origin and paid adblocks fail.
It also has never once had problems with for example, the pop ups on YouTube telling you to disable your adblocker.
