Same! uBlock on Firefox lists ~280 scripts blocked

I remember reading this when you published it! I was considering going at the time, as well as some years after, but this + work + starting a family had me choose different. I don'…

I decided to start learning Zig this past week, and typing in "zig book" to a search engine led me to that project. After a handful of pages, I had no clue what was going on and co…
