If you don't already. Install the "uBlock Origin Lite" extension. It will make your life better.

But when researchers affiliated with Goethe University Frankfurt compared the old and new tools, they could not find much difference. According to a study titled, "Privacy vs. Profit: The Impact of Google's Manifest Version 3 (MV3) Update on Ad Blocker Effectiveness," just published in the peer reviewed publication Proceedings on Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PoPETs), the performance of Chrome's MV3 architecture is more or less on par with the legacy MV2 specification. "Our results reveal no statistically significant reduction in ad-blocking or anti-tracking effectiveness for MV3 ad blockers compared to their MV2 counterparts, and in some cases, MV3 instances even exhibit slight improvements in blocking trackers," conclude authors Karlo Lukic and Lazaros Papadopoulos.
