Using Opera's build-in adblocker as an easier to use uBlockOrigin in medium mode

[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 914013, member: 82776"] Complicated? Can't get any simpler: with ad protection on you have medium mode, without you have easy mode. Switching mode with one click and Opera remembers your choices. It is an unusual way of upgrading an adblocker to a content blocker like uBlock. To do the same thing with uBo you need three clicks in stead of one. I just wanted to see whether I could find an alternative to uBlockOrigin in case the Google Manifest V3 (and other on-going security improvements to restrict extensions) would result in loss of medium mode blocking. I also tried with Policy Control which offers better 3p-blocking than uBlock, but Policy Control can't be disabled easily per website. To my surprise this Opera build-in adblocker tweak is even easier to (less clicks) to switch from medium mode to easy mode as uBlockOrigin. [/QUOTE]
