So...continue to not use Facebook?

Just block the whole site 👍

how about just ".facebook" into filters lol. That is one big ad in the first place.

While facebook is a nightmarish cesspool, this sets a bad precedent.

If ad companies learn that all they have to do to get around ad blockers is rapidly change their system until developers give up, all of them will do it.

Honestly I think the intersection between facebook users and ublock origin users is nearly 0

Facebook is one of the most scummiest companies in the world.

I don't really use Facebook but the fbpurity extension is still updated and actively updates to block ads: https://www.fbpurity.com/

If you're a Facebook user, don't. That company sucks. Stop using it. Tell others to not use it.

If you're using UBO, why the fuck are you on Facebook to begin with? That's step 1, lose Facebook.

Everybody here is saying just don't use facebook, but doesn't Facebook have ads on other websites as well, just like Google Ads? Are those going to start evading Ublock as well?

Oh no... anyway.

I mean really, who uses FB anymore?

People will still use Facebook because of Facebook Marketplace, Facebook Pages of restaurants, festivals, celebrities or simply stubborn uneducated friends and family using Facebook

Its going to be tough to continue not using facebook for 20 years now

This is when the community needs to come together and double down on creating filters for Facebook. If Facebook gets away with overwhelming adblock developers until they give up, other ad networks will follow.

Fair decision, doctors pull the plug on brain dead patients all the time.

I don't have the impression Ublock worked well on Facebook even before this decision. No wonder, the site is a design mess even from the user's perspective.

What's stopping YouTube from overwhelming the maintainers in the same way?

I wish my HOA would leave facebook groups, I'd be more than happy to be done with the platform.

I literally sign in once every couple weeks, check the neighborhood status and sign back out. I don't even have it on my phone anymore.

Will this mean Facebook ads will load on other sites, or does this only affect the Facebook pages directly?

I deleted my Facebook account in 2014. At this point I longer have no account than I had one

Even then it was never all that effective. The only real solution I'd ever found was the FB Purity extension, unfortunately it seems like the developer may have passed away or had some significant event happen. They went from regular updates and daily interaction for like 15 years to completely vanishing 7 months ago.

Which means Facebook will be using its tricks elsewhere to see ads.lovely
