As Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled in the future. They’re going to eventually ban adblockers for chromium. We need to quickly respond with alternatives to android, we must end this market consolidation.

From what I’ve heard uBlock Origin Lite only barely falls short of the ad-blocking coverage that regular uBO offers, so there will still be options for Chrome users after this happens, not to mention the multitude of alternative browsers and app stores for Android.
I still think that making Linux phones a viable alternative is very important, but it’s not significantly more important now than it was a month ago.
I agree with you.
Linux phones have always been important and some ad-blocking controversy (which I don’t know the details about) isn’t making it more important than before.
Linux on desktop is now user friendly and I hope one day will reach that on phones too, even if for now it sounds way too complicated for me.
If Manifest 3 becomes mainstream, ad software developers will simply create stuff that bypasses it.
Hypothetical example: there will be a 30 000 domain name blocking limit. Result: ad networks now have 30 001 domains.
