I don't understand. Has this person never used the addon before? You can enable like 15 filters in ublock and the memory usage will barely even move. Adblock plus would shit itself if you had that many filters on at once. Hell even easylist can cause adblock plus to shit itself.

>>47428018
It's a "fork", but he is the original dev and put way more effort into it than Chris. He's happy to work on the code while letting Chris do marketing, communication and ports.

Communication doesn't seem to be gorhill's strongest suit, but he is a great coder. To Chris's credit, he seems to be able to deal with the mixed signals rather well and accomodate gorhill.

Chris, latest.

The one from Chris. The extensions from each repo will use different ID's now.

The builds on Chris's repo are supported by Alex Vallat, who controls the Add-on store version.
>>
>>47446485
>>47446501

>who controls the Add-on store version
Too bad AMO is complete bullshit.
>>
>>47446614
>So why is Chris doing the Chrome version still?
Probably because he already paid to put it on the Chrome store. If nothing else some of the donations had to have been used for that.
