Update: I've received feedback from AMO, asking me to instead create a self-hosted version of the beta version of uBlock Origin:
Please submit your development builds as self-hosted versions to your original add-on.
So essentially publishing a dev build on AMO is being refused. I will need to read more about self-hosted versions and how (and if) this can be done on GitHub.
I've received an email from Mozilla informing me that starting February 22nd, 2018, the beta channel on AMO will no longer be available for developers to publish beta versions of their extensions.
As per email, those using the beta version of uBO will be automatically moved to the latest release version of uBO when the release version become greater than the last version available in the beta channel.
Given this, the new uBlock Origin beta version is now located at: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin-dev/ (see update above).
Keep in mind this is a distinct extension from uBlock Origin stable on AMO, and this means they can't share settings, and the first time you install that dev build, all the settings/filters/rules will be the default ones. If needed, use the backup/restore feature to transfer settings between both the stable and dev build.
Closed as fixed:
Nightly
Core
- Installation
- Feel free to read about the extension's required permissions.
Chromium
You can install the latest version manually, from the Chrome Store, or from the Opera store.
There is also a development version in the Chrome store if you want to test uBlock Origin with the latest changes: see uBlock Origin dev build.
It is expected that uBlock Origin is compatible with any Chromium-based browsers.
Firefox / Firefox for Android
There is also a development version if you want to test uBlock Origin with the latest changes: see beta channel for uBlock Origin
uBlock Origin is compatible with SeaMonkey, Pale Moon, and possibly other browsers based on Firefox.
Thanks to Debian contributor Sean Whitton, users of Debian 9 or later or Ubuntu 16.04 or later may simply apt-get install xul-ext-ublock-origin

Microsoft Edge
Developer: @nikrolls.
Stable version available in Microsoft Store.
Development version available at https://github.com/nikrolls/uBlock-Edge#edge.
Note that issues specific to the Edge fork are the responsibility of the current maintainer, I have no control over the code base of the fork.
Safari (macOS)
Developer: @el1t.
Development version available at https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari#ublock-originfor-safari.
Note that issues specific to the Safari fork are the responsibility of the current maintainer, I have no control over the code base of the fork.
Note for all browsers
To benefit from uBlock Origin's higher efficiency, it's advised that you don't use other inefficient blockers at the same time (such as AdBlock or Adblock Plus). uBlock₀ will do as well or better than most popular ad blockers. Other blockers can also prevent uBlock₀'s privacy or anti-blocker features from working properly.
