... this is what I am currently using: uBlock Origin Legacy v1.16.4.35

Yes, this is the latest version from AstroSkipper.

The @AstroSkipper version is still working. I created it back when nobody was maintaining the legacy version of uBO anymore... ...it’s not easy to implement features in legacy extensions that were actually developed for webextensions.

Perhaps you could consider porting over the security-related patches that were recently implemented?

My main focus was on fixing all the obvious errors caused by a completely outdated XPI file and its incompatibility with the new format of the assets file. That is why I also changed the uBO ID in my version and created my own assets file. As I already said, it’s not easy to implement patches, and that also includes security patches, in legacy extensions that were actually developed for webextensions. So, if you are more interested in security patches of uBO itself, you should use @UCyborg's version and wait for the most recent ones if they are ever implemented. But if you are rather interested in compatibilty and better performance, you should use my version. So it’s entirely up to you.

Do you planning to update your version of Ublock in future?

This is the closed, archived repository of the original uBlock Origin Legacy: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy There, you can clearly see that there are no recent patches or updates for it. No more development. @UCyborg started to port patches from the webextension to the legacy version https://github.com/UCyborg/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy. But with long delays in development. His last version is nearly one year ago. And as I already reported, I noticed incompatibilities and higher resource usage when using his version. So, as long as my version is running without any issues, I won’t be making any changes or updates. And if I do, it will only be to the assets, i.e. the filter lists if there are issues. Be that as it may, @Monroe, @Amigafever and @Rod Steel, I'm still pleased to see that there is interest in my uBlick Origin Legacy build.
