    Anyone here understand what is the material difference between uBO and uBO Lite? I don’t understand what is meant by

    It’s worth noting that while the new app ships with similar features to the original version, including core ad-blocking features, it doesn’t support dynamic filters for blocking scriptlet injection.

    Or if there are any other differences not mentioned.

        They are both legit. The lite version just has to follow the new v3 manifest rule where it cannot update its block lists independently from full extension updates. This effectively puts a significant delay in the ability of uBO Lite to block new ads/threats, among other small changes that neuter the traditional uBO experience.
