    It's a Chromium bug. It happened back on Chrome 60 something I recall. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

    Any workaround for uBlock Origin getting corrupted? Fortunately I have my custom filters backed up but repairing and doing the same procedure many times per day is tedious.

    its an edge bug, we are using edge and I dont experience the issue on chrome or chrome canary

    make note of your settings, or export then and start from scratch with the extension. I started from scratch and havent experienced the issue again so im not sure if exporting and importing will work

    They need to stop using pure black as a background, really, it just looks horrible. Sure, a pure black background comes in handy sometimes, but for a dark mode or theme, a very dark grey is preferred and much more readable to most people's vision. That's one thing macOS' dark mode/theme has going for it: it actually does it properly.

    It is absolutely incredible that anyone is entitled to dictate which background color can be used and which not.
    It's incredible that someone can dictate such a thing.
    Will tomorrow Microsoft start dictating which hand must use to sweep the ass? Or should it be done with paper, or to wash it, as is customary in some places?

    But do it! Just like in any other Chromium-based browser.
    Two possibilities
    first option
    - use bookmarks manager - select all and then delete
    another option - go to your user profile folder and delete the bookmarks, favicons and favicons-journal files (two last not mandatory, but recommended)
    If you have a syncronization with the Internet, you will also need to do the same in internet, ie delete bookmarks on Your internet account, in other ways Your bookmarks will be soon restored, if not after some minutes, then after next restart. Usually, if You're connected to internet and use bookmarks manager and make chnges on your computer, then all the same will be done in internet automatically, but it may not work on this browser because it is still in developing stage and everything may not work. That's why is recommended delete them manually, if not deleted automatically.

    They should be in this folder (I don't use this Edge, that's why I say "should be")
    %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\AC\MicrosoftEdge\User\Default\Favorites

    But you should remember that here is Chromium based Edge only.
