      Still big kudos to Raymond for providing the foundations to make it all work too.

        Aren’t most lists available on other browsers and ad blockers? Unless Raymond created the format

          The format currently used in adblocker predates uBO by almost a decade so no, but still, maintaining this add-on with how fast and often web browser changes, and keeping it performant must be quite the task.

            I think performant is probably the key thing here. There were ad blockers before and there are alternative ones now, but the thing that sets unlock Origin apart is how light weight it is.

          uBlock Origin explicitly says he refuses donations and to give it to the list maintainers instead.

          A true hero acknowledging the other heroes on which his work rests.
