This extension is a must have if you value defending your privacy against BigTech. @SYNZVATO is the "real deal", he is a dedicated privacy advocate - he's not a business that betrays its users in the way that e.g. Brave browser betrays its users to google (look into--> google fonts).

Here is a very meaningful example: when Micro$oft bought github, SYNZVATO left github. This guy deserves more recognition. He is a true pioneer.

I always install this and uBO on every browser. Thank you, Thomas, for expending the effort needed to make this available on Opera.

@av307: Decentraleyes doesn't just block the original, it also substitutes the javascript that was blocked. So you don't lose the functionality that the javascript provides. You get an identical copy from Decentraleyes, but nothing from google. So google can't track you.

Whenever google provides any "free and helpful" stuff to you, that's really a spying tracker.

Thank you for providing this! It is nice to know there are good people out there trying to do as much as they can to keep prying eyes out of information they shouldn't be privy to for free.

Why does the Opera browser warn about the imminent end of support for the Decentraleyes extension?

@Katsygin Probably because the extension wasn't migrated to Manifest V3 yet.

@leocg: Thanks. I understand. You can use it or install it from the Google Play Store.

@Katsygin Because of what I said. The extensions haven't been updated in the last 3 years.

@leocg Thank you. Then it's clear.

@Katsygin @leocg Developer here. To clarify: Because, unfortunately, all of Decentraleyes' updates have been ignored by Opera's moderation team since August 24, 2023. My final request (read: plea) for moderation was submitted on the 5th of July, but (obviously) to no avail. This is why I will soon be removing the Opera flavor from the extension's repository, website, etc. I wish things were different, but this is outside of my control.
