    Can we stop panicing every 5 seconds? Give adblockers 1-10 days and they will fix it. We have been through this a bunch of times.

      I think it’s less panicking and more informational. The enshittification of Google has commenced and this is just documentation.

      Yeah, as long as it is a big enough problem on the internet, you will have at least one nerd trying to find a way to circumvent it.

      Give them time.
