First read

Visible and active, but adoption proof is still thinner

gorhill/uBlock has enough public attention and recent movement to stay on the shortlist, but package usage is still partial, so the next step should be source and ecosystem validation rather than a quick yes.

Visible

68.9K public stars in the current GitStar snapshot.

Recognizable in the ecosystem

Active

Last commit Oct 26, 2026.

Fresh activity

Adopted

Treat stars as discovery context until a linked package appears.

No linked package mapping

Confidence

One or more key signals are partial, so GitStar keeps the interpretation conservative.

Compare lens

airbnb/javascript and nodejs/node are the closest comparison targets GitStar found. A side-by-side comparison usually tells you more than a single raw rank.

Trajectory

Read the recent motion first. This block is for deciding whether the repository still looks alive, compounding, or flattening before you trust stars alone.

Package reality

No linked npm or PyPI package is mapped for this repository yet, so the page leans more heavily on GitHub-visible popularity and should be read more conservatively.

GitStar expects a package signal here, but no npm or PyPI package is linked to this repository yet.

Validation note

GitStar can summarize public signals for gorhill/uBlock, but the GitHub repository is still the primary place to confirm release cadence, issue activity, and maintainer intent.

Hype vs Reality
Insufficient Package Data

GitStar can see repository momentum, but it does not have a reliable linked package signal yet.

Treat stars and recent movement as discovery context only until npm or PyPI usage is available.

Method note
This label appears when GitStar cannot find strong enough package telemetry to compare attention against adoption. Compare it against other JavaScript repos before treating stars as a moat.

About This Page

This page provides a quick overview of gorhill/uBlock based on GitStar's cached data. The signal chart reconstructs approximate checkpoints from current stars plus cached daily, weekly, and monthly star deltas, so it is best read as directional context rather than as a precise historical audit log.
