A viral take argues shadcn/ui, not React itself, is what developers actually wanted from the ecosystem. An accessibility writeup digs into why disabled submit buttons quietly break forms, especially with password managers. Smaller but useful: a CLI tool for shrinking images before they hit git history, and a guide to GitHub's stacked PR workflow. ## Content **TLDR:** Firefox is now the only major browser without compromises for uBlock Origin, as Edge follows Chrome into Manifest V3. A viral take argues shadcn/ui, not React itself, is what developers actually wanted from the ecosystem. An accessibility writeup digs into why disabled submit buttons quietly break forms, especially with password managers. Smaller but useful: a CLI tool for shrinking images before they hit git history, and a guide to GitHub's stacked PR workflow. --- ## Firefox becomes the last major browser with full uBlock Origin support Edge is following Chrome into Manifest V3, which strips ad blockers of the APIs they need and pushes users toward the weaker uBlock Origin Lite or built-in blockers. Safari and DuckDuckGo never supported uBlock Origin to begin with. That leaves Firefox as the only mainstream browser where the real extension still works without compromise, confirmed directly by Firefox on Bluesky.

It's framed as a pseudo-library meant to be remixed inside your own codebase rather than imported and left alone. Whether or not you buy the framing, the shadcn ecosystem keeps expanding fast, with a fresh port of its chart catalog to TanStack Charts landing the same day.

The author calls this out as a lazy pattern that shows up even in AI-generated code, and walks through fixes: listen for input events instead of keyup, use aria-disabled to keep the button tabbable, or skip disabling entirely and validate on submit with inline feedback.

The default scan is read-only and doesn't call an AI model, but it supports Next.js, Astro, Vite React, and monorepos, plus a GitHub Action for CI and an MCP server so coding agents can call it directly. A `--prompt` flag generates a remediation plan, and `--apply` can hand that plan straight to an installed agent like Claude Code or Codex CLI.
