You should switch from chrome to firefox. Less tracking built in to the browser. Also chrome is planning to deprecate manifest V2 which will break all adblockers.

Unless you use a browser that uses its own ad and tracker blocking. I get fewer ads on Vivaldi without adblocking then I get on Firefox with ublock origin.

Runs about half the resources that Firefox takes up too.

Ad block on chromium was supposed to break in January when manifest v3 came around and it doesn’t seem like much has changed on browsers that were prepared for it like Brave and V.

Edge and Chrome are fucked, but who cares about them anyways.

I used vivaldi for a period, but it’s still Chromium. I’m trying to support the only non-chromium option out there. The more users Firefox has, the better. Chrome and Chromium are so dominant, it’s seriously problematic.

Unless you were running Firefx with outdated uBO filters, I doubt that. Vivaldi is a memory hog for me.

Strange, it’s literally half of Firefox with equivalent tabs.

Adguard is russian spyware. Also it wouldn’t matter if they have a manifest v2 compliant addon as manifest v2 is going away in less than a year. Manifest V3 breaks adblockers.
