Is uBlock Origin No Longer Supported on Chrome? Temporary Fix and Some Alternatives

Google has started automatically disabling the uBlock Origin extension on Chrome due to the transition from Manifest V2 to Manifest V3, which will be completed by June 2025.
To temporarily fix uBlock Origin on Chrome, users can manually reactivate it under the 'manage extensions' tab in Chrome settings.
Manifest V3 does not support the WebRequest API that ad blockers like uBlock Origin rely on, but studies suggest that ad blockers will remain effective under MV3 platforms.
uBlock Origin still works on Firefox, but on Chrome, there is a workaround to enable it, as Google is phasing out MV2 extensions.
Alternatives to uBlock Origin on Chrome include using uBlock Origin Lite, switching to Firefox, or opting for other ad blockers like Adblock Plus or Ghostery.
Among the alternatives, Adblock Plus, AdBlock, and Ghostery are recommended as effective ad blockers that work well on Chrome's Manifest V3.
Users can expect uBlock Origin not to be downloadable on Chrome in the future, and a shift to other ad blockers may be necessary as Chrome phases out uBlock Origin.
Google's move away from Manifest V2 to Manifest V3 raises concerns about ad blocker effectiveness, although existing alternatives still provide ad-blocking capabilities.
Ultimately, users may need to explore different ad blocker options or consider switching browsers if uBlock Origin is no longer supported on Chrome.
uBlock Origin enthusiasts are encouraged to share their opinions on alternative ad blockers and potential browser switches in the comment section of the article.
