uBlock Origin Lite: A Permission-less Content Blocker for Edge

uBlock Origin Lite is a MV3-based Edge add-on that offers permission-less content blocking. Its default ruleset mirrors uBlock Origin's filterset, ensuring immediate ad, tracker, and miner blocking upon installation. It operates declaratively, meaning it does not consume CPU/memory resources unless you interact with it, enhancing browser efficiency. By choice, users can offer uBOL additional permissions for optimal performance on specific sites, maintaining user control and flexibility.

今迄はuBlock Originを使っていましたが､Manifest V3への移行に伴いいずれ使えなくなると知りuBlock Origin Liteを使い始めました｡最初はuBlock Originの簡易版的な広告ブロッカーかなと思っていたので使う事に抵抗がありましたが､uBlock Origin同様完璧に広告をブロックします｡設定項目も少なくシンプルなのでとても使い易いです｡
