I was a super early adopter for firefox. I started using it back in 2005-2006. I'm pretty sure it was still in beta when I started using it.
Over the past 20 years I've watched while firefox users have formed a goddamn cult around a software. It's insane to me, especially because I'm seeing exactly the same things from Mozilla that I was seeing from Microsoft (and later Google) at the time I decided to switch from IE to firefox to begin with...
Firefox isn't special. It's falling for all the cloud-based privacy invasive enshittification that Chrome has so far. It's just getting there slower.
So cool your jets. Especially considering uBlock Origin Lite is uBlock Origin. It's just compatible with the Manifest V3 standard.
