#Chromium (and #Chrome) begins phasing-out Manifest v2.
https://blog.chromium.org/2024/05/manifest-v2-phase-out-begins.html
This means, among other things, that uBlock Origin is about to be disabled in Chrome. Google will choose a different extension to recommend but it can not be as effective as #uBlock Origin.
Following #Google's example, may I instead recommend you switch to #Firefox.
Firefox will continue to support Manifest v2, and consequently uBlock Origin and other extensions that can not be implemented with Manifest v3.
Happy browsing.
