For those older devices, the only option is to install the new root certificate.

Re:Pomegranate compound with anti-aging effects passes human trial

pomegranates and raspberries as well
"A compound called urolithin A (UA) was the focus of the study, after previous experiments with it showed promise in extending the lifespans of worms and mice. The compound appears to fight aging by improving the function of mitochondria – the energy-producing part of a cell – in a way similar to the benefits of exercise. While it's not found naturally in any known food, biomolecules in fruits like pomegranates and raspberries do break down into UA in the human gut"
Here's the study https://sci-hub.tw/https://www.nature.com/articles/s42255-01...
Yellow raspberries seems to contain bigger amounts of ellagic acid than pomegranates

"I see some Chrome/Chromium users wondering why they are not updated to uBlock Origin 1.17.0:
When I publish a new version of uBO, I deploy gradually, starting with 5% of users then increasing every day: 12%, 25%, 50%, 100%."

Are you sure that the culprit here it's uBlock Origin itself and not your configuration/filter lists?
I'm asking this because i've experienced similar problems with some pages and in most if not all cases it was the latter.
