How is this different from the normal / existing uBlock? https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/uBlock/releases

The normal one is IIRC a fork when the original developer disappeared for a while. He's now very active again.

Yes, it's great and I have been using it for quite a while (on Chrome as well), but it's nothing new, unless I am missing something.

It would be helpful if the submitter also wrote a comment about the reasons of the submission, when they are not immediately apparent.

It's the fork developed by the original author. He transfered the main repository to another contributor for maintaining and then open-source drama ensued.

I don't think they've diverged enough to recommend one over the other. I'm using Origin.
