Are there any addons as essential as uBlockOrigin? (lemmy.world)

I would love to find extensions that make me think "How did I live without this?"

aparently you know more than we here.

i had to look it up,
but aparently Decentraleyes isnt being maintained and grew more useless as the time went on.

aparently localCDN is a better mantained alternative.

Thanks for the tip. From the localCDN description:

Differences between LocalCDN and Decentraleyes

LocalCDN contains a big collection of frameworks and useful functions.

New: Sync extension settings with Firefox Sync or own server

Includes Rocket Loader, Findify, Vue.js, page.js, lozad, AngularJS, Bootstrap, Google Material Icons, React, Vue, Chart.js and much more. The list will be continuously updated.
Includes Font Awesome in different version (v3.x, v4.x, v5.x, v6.x)
Prepared rules for uBlock Origin/uMatrix/AdGuard and notifications if rule changes are necessary
Removes integrity/crossorigin attributes to replace more frameworks

@Kerb @nebulaone how trustworthy is #localcdn? #Decentraleyes is kind of confirmed by #Mozilla, they even recommend it

The source code is public ( https://codeberg.org/nobody/LocalCDN ) and it has a reasonable amount of stars. So I think it should be fine. No guarantees, though.

I saw there has been a recent update to Decentraleyes. Not sure if this addresses the abandoned issue though. Trying out LOCALCDN instead..
