    These guys are incredible at the game. Being a quake player I really wish Quake would have taken off and been as big as Fortnite and the like.

    Alternatively, folks could use a web browser that respects privacy. A quote from the dev in that same thread:

    A quote from the dev in that same thread:

    Since the next uBO release will essentially be what 1.22.5rc2 is, consider that uBO is probably coming to an end of life in the Chrome Web Store -- there is no good reason to believe uBO 1.22.5rc2 would no longer be rejected with only changing the version number to 1.23.0.

    Those who still want to use uBO will have to find another browser for which uBO will still be available.

    I've got a landing page running with Gitlab and Netlify using Hugo, it's completely free and lightning fast. While the initial learning curve of how to connect them together was steep for me, it's now super easy to maintain. I can add pages in markdown on my PC, push the change through Git, and tada, it's live.

    Some of the themes for Hugo are pretty awesome too.

    I received the transparent vinyl of the album yesterday, looking forward to playing it this weekend. I'm with you on the vocals, I'd rather have instrumentals all the way.
