uBlock Origin got forever disabled in Chrome due to the browser's transition to MV3. What does it mean for the extension's many users and what are the alternatives?
I get why you’d be okay with history being locally saved, but saving cookies is a slippery slope. It’s very hard to know exactly what’s being recorded on you, even on a privacy-focused browser
As soon as you log in and then allow a website to auto login on your computer, you just give up any anonymity you had towards that website
I do block all third party cookies/known tracking cookies, so it’s not totally open. But you’re right. It’s just that in my case that’s a compromise I’m alright with for general internet use.
you can easily disable the deletion of cookies on a site-by-site basis from the address bar. turns out there’s only a handful sites i visit where setting an exception is necessary, so i rather appreciate this feature.
i like having access to my browsing history though, so that one I’ve indeed turned off
I find deleting history and cookies every time I close the browser to be an unnecessary annoyance. You can easily change it, though.

I was unaware of that, thanks. I might try that.
