Ad blocking

📌 https://ublockorigin.com ≠ ~~uBlock (ublock.org)~~

Recommended browsers on a PC:

LibreWolf (FireFox); uBlock Origin is installed by default.
Vivaldi browser (Chromium); has a native ad blocker but obviously supports extensions, and will try supporting manifest V2 “as long as Chromium core supports Extension Manifest v2”.
Also, why the “not completely open source” criticism is unwarranted.

On Android:

Mull; supports extensions and doesn't ship with ads.

Considering the Pixel 8 is significantly newer than my Samsung Galaxy S10e I think it should definitely be possible to get it to work. I ran into trouble as well due to downloading the wrong APK, and another time because I didn't really understand what ReVanced was doing so I screwed up the correct procedure.

If I recall correctly,

Download the APK it recommends
Patch it
Save the patched APK by tapping the save button on the bottom left (?)
Install via the patched APK
Launch the actually patched app and not the original one 🙃
