Aljoudi created to host and promote uBlock and to request donations. This version was later renamed uBlock Origin and it has been completely divorced from Aljoudi's uBlock. However, Hill immediately self-forked it and continued the effort there.
The uBlock project official repository was transferred to Chris Aljoudi by original developer Raymond Hill in April 2015, due to frustration of dealing with requests. First released in June 2014 as a Chrome and Opera extension, by winter 2015, the extension had expanded to other browsers. uBlock was developed by Raymond Hill to use community-maintained block lists, while adding features and raising the code quality to release standards. Development started by forking from the codebase of HTTP Switchboard along with another blocking extension called uMatrix, designed for advanced users. UBlock was initially named "μBlock" but the name was later changed to "uBlock" to avoid confusion as to how the Greek letter μ (Mu/Micro) in "μBlock" should be pronounced.
