You can install uBlock Origin on Brave and Chrome too. [1] It is works slightly better on Firefox though. [2]

...for now.

Be aware that Chrome is going to stop supporting Manifest v2. This will make uBlock Origin stop working - not because the author doesn't want to support v3, but because it is not possible for uBlock Origin to work under the new extension API.

If you like uBlock Origin, now would be a good time to get out of the habit of using Chrome.

Not on mobile Chrome though which is what parent was writing about.
