- Google is transitioning Chrome’s extension support from the Manifest V2 framework to the V3.
- This means users won’t be able to use uBlock Origin to block ads on Google Chrome.
- However, there’s a new iteration of the app — uBlock Origin Lite, which is Manifest V3 compliant but doesn’t boast the original version’s comprehensive ad-blocking features.
If you are the IT guy just buy a raspberry pi or a cheap mini pc and install pi-hole at your parents place that you can access remotely. That way their entire network is blocked from ads and you can troubleshoot from anywhere.
And then it gets blamed every time something doesn’t work right with the internet
Yeah that’s what happened with my wife. Had to scrap PiHole because she didn’t want to deal with it.
Honestly that’s way too much work. Keep it simple imo.
It is simple. Probably simpler than educating a stubborn boomer to use a different browser.
