uBO Lite have a lot of limitations:

Filter lists update only when the extension updates (no fetching up to date lists from servers)
Many filters are dropped at conversion time due to MV3's limited filter syntax
No crafting your own filters (thus no element picker)
No strict-blocked pages
No per-site switches
No dynamic filtering
No importing external lists

Sounds like manifest 3 would also break extensions like Stylish, Greasemonkey and Dark Reader, basically anything that injects or interacts with the html, css or JavaScript of a page in any way.

Basically, most actually useful extensions

Hilarious. Please people, just stop using Chrome seriously. There's no reason to do it.

Well, googie has certainly given me ample reason to never use Chrome again... Not that I ever planned to anyway, but still...
