There is the "Lite" version by the same author written for the current Chrome.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ublock-origin-lite/...

Works fine for me. It has a lot less options, truly "Lite", but most people will be fine. Whatever Google might do that will make this extension worthless, we will se, for now, it seems to be working. (It's funny that the Chrome Web Store lists this extension as "Featured".)

By the way, on Android, I replaced Firefox with Microsoft's Edge. It supports uBlock Origin (no "Lite" in the name, not sure what that means, I did not check the details of how much it supports since it just works as it is). It is significantly faster than Firefox (again, Android). It plays all videos, while Firefox just showed an "unsupported" placeholder for videos on some niche sex video site I happened to accidentally visit.

Supposedly, filter lists only get updated when the extension is updated with uBO-lite. Google could just start delaying approval for these adblockers and their filter lists would become out of date fairly quick.

I've never added a custom filter. Do they sync to all my Firefox browsers that have uBO installed?

I use this thing daily, its a win11 pro, and I see no issues with it at all...

I am the only one?

I use various versions of Windows 11, mostly LTSC because I'm lazy. Otherwise I'll do a light debloat with something like ShutUp10 to turn off the majority of the annoyances. I'm able to deal with any snafus from this so it's not an issue for me.

No real issues to report. Various OEM and custom machines run fine. Ever since Windows 7 I'd say I haven't ran into major issues or even many minor ones.

The last I looked into this these were the conclusions I reached (depending on individual situation):

- If you're looking to do this 100% to the letter, then you'll need to enter some form of VL agreement with an authorized reseller. This will come with a minimum purchase of 5 licenses.

- If you're looking to do this with a "real" key, but not by the book, then one of the gray market sites.

- If you're looking to do this morally (by paying Microsoft), but don't care if the actual activation is completed with the license you purchase, then purchase a Windows 11 Pro license but use https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/ to activate your Windows 11 LTSC. The ISO itself can still be sourced from Microsoft.

- If you don't care about any of this, then the same as the above except don't buy the Windows 11 Pro License

- If you absolutely want to buy a single license "by the book"... there is no official offering available.

[sigh] I remember when modal windows were the only imaginable disruption to your work. The irony is, at least they had a clear purpose — and a close button.

Use Linux. Windows is over if you want it.

Does Linux have a stable and reliable remote desktop server yet? Using Wayland.

I love being able to remote into my home PC and experience near lag-free use via RDP. I've tried the Gnome and KDE implementations but they aren't that great as a user who just wants to connect and use the PC.

I found the gnome one confusing, as it had two options. One had to be logged into locally and unlocked first. The other didn't I believe but there was some other gotcha. Maybe having signed in once but then locked the session. I do remember not being able to RDP from a fresh reboot which made me think the machine failed to boot. KDE's implementation I think also suffered from having to log in locally first.

I've made use of Sunshine and Moonlight for now. It works, but it's meant more for gaming. No copy and paste, more bandwidth or more cpu/gpu cycles, etc.

I guess the OEMs (Lenovo in this case) still don't want support calls about why their game (anti-cheat enabled, fortnite, etc) won't run on their new Legion Go S.

Ah, the old "stealing" line.

I can’t stand libreoffice - between tons of bugs (waiting for printers on startup is a default..), extremely janky UI from 20 years ago, poor performance, exceptionally slow load times, and bad formatting issues and incompatibilities.. it’s just an awful experience overall.

I've been using OnlyOffice lately. I'm not a hardcore office user so maybe someone else can comment on how it is compared to Libre/MS Office.

People use Teams because they're already using Microsoft office products and it is "free" in that way. Then it's entrenched and folks can't imagine doing things any other way.

We had to start using it because all of our clients demanded it. Managers/Owners don't say no to big money.
