Feature request: FastForward about browser_extension

[ManeraKai]

No, LibRedirect is only meant to redirect popular websites to privacy friendly frontends.

I don't get why that excludes a filter list for FastForward.

[ManeraKai]

Is this filter redirecting to a privacy friendly frontend?

[aaronliu0130]

I did some digging: FastForward could specify custom filters during the Manifest v2 days. However Google disallowed executing unpacked/unsigned code in their Manifest v3. This disabled all custom filter lists, and is yet another reason ublock origin isn't moving to v3.

What I meant was creating LibRedirect filters for FastForward, not importing rules from FastForward. But it seems like the days have gone.

I think we will also not move to Mv3.

[aaronliu0130]

Maybe, though that's still possible since the dynamic rules' limit should be enough to cover all instances.

[ManeraKai]

You mean the recent modification to Mv3?

[aaronliu0130]

IDK how recent it is, but it's gotten to the point where uBO Lite (a Mv3 version of uBlock Origin) can block nearly all of the ads uBO does.
