Gorhill to Stop Supporting uBlock Origin Lite Addon for Firefox (github.com/uBlockOrigin)
I am deploying uBOL to Firefox to parity deployment to Chrome and Edge. The Firefox add-ons store shows version 2023.8.25.959. Version history shows only this version in the store. Github shows a more up to date version. One of my test devices has a version 2024.8.21.996. Another test device that I just pushed my policy to has 2023.8.25.959 because it is the "latest" in the store currently.
