What about MV3? It cans replace uBO?
They are working on it:
This release contains various bug fixes, including ones related to the upcoming transition to Manifest v3.
When MV3 is a reality, we/you can try uBlock Origin Lite, Adblock Plus, AdGuard and/or Ghostery an see which one works best.
They are all working on it and nothing is finished, no need, because MV3 is not a reality yet.
