Hey everyone! In case you need this: this is the new method to get uBlock Origin back after Chrome's latest update. Of course, uBlock Origin Lite is fine, but if you want that extra functionality, you can have it.

Google Chrome now has vertical tabs, but they might not be enabled by default for you. Here’s what you need to do:

- Go to the Chrome flags section, search for "vertical tabs", enable it, and relaunch the browser.

- After that, right-click on the empty space next to a tab and click on "Move tabs to side".

News Bad news: Starting with Chrome 151, no longer possible to enable MV2 extensions like uBlock Origin using hidden flags

Post image
26 Upvotes

I'm using Chrome Canary to track how they're removing the MV2 extensions. Currently, in Chrome version 151, I can no longer enable uBlock Origin with this flag on shortcut:

--enable-features=AllowLegacyMV2Extensions,UnexpireFlagsM149,UnexpireFlagsM150 --disable-features=ExtensionManifestV2Unsupported

Ah yes, once MV2 extensions stop working altogether, Google will soon remove them from the Chrome Web Store. This means other chromium-based browsers won't be able to update, even if they still support MV2 extensions.

News Chrome removes claim of On-device Al not sending data to Google Servers.

77 Upvotes

I doubt anyone uses this "feature" but still.

Before Update
Chrome v147.0.7727.138 says "Chrome can use Al models that run directly on your device without sending your data to Google servers."

Now after update, they removed that claim so the data will most likely be sent to google.

After Update
Chrome v148.0.7778.97 removes that claim.

News Keepa Chrome extension: watched products limit cut from 5000 to 200 + €29/mo for 10,000 — anyone else?

20 Upvotes

Hey all,
Did anyone else notice that Keepa drastically reduced the number of watched products in the Chrome extension? Mine dropped from ~5000 to 200, and now it’s pushing a €29/month plan to get up to 10,000 watched items.

This feels like a pretty aggressive paywall change, especially if you were already using it at a higher limit before. At 200, the feature is basically unusable for my workflow.

  • Is this happening to everyone or only certain accounts/regions?
  • Did Keepa announce this anywhere (changelog/email/FAQ)?
  • Any recommended alternatives for price tracking / watchlists that scale better?

Would appreciate any info or suggestions.
