It's better than nothing but it's still far behind uBlock Origin or even the Brave's built-in ad blocker. Their decision to stop supporting uBlock Origin made me drop it as my alternative browser.

Just checked it, and uBlock Origin still works in the latest version (as well as uMatrix and some other Mv2 extensions I had installed)

I literally downloaded the latest version yesterday (8.3), and uBlock Origin, uMatrix (and some other niche MV2 extensions) still work. I just have to update them manually since Google removed them from the store, but other than that, they work as before
