- xingped 4mo agoYeah, this exactly. Google goes out of their way to be as unfriendly to adblockers as possible in Chrome. I don't know why anyone is still even using Chrome or why you would want to support them (by value-adding to their browser) with your efforts.
- stronglikedan 4mo agobecause it's still the fastest browser with the most intuitive UI, which is all the vast majority of people care about
- ahriad 4mo agoEdge is better, with only downside is that MS keep pushing Bing on its users.
- KetoManx64 4mo ago... And all your searches, preferences and and browsing history is linked to your Microsoft + Windows account so you can be targeted by ads better.. I have no idea why people chose Edge over Brave or Vivaldi.
- ahriad 4mo agoBecause Brave have no way to store my data ( Passwords and bookmarks) for futures install.
- noncoml 4mo ago> all the vast majority of people care about apparently, as demonstrated by this post, they care about ad-blockers too..
- xingped 4mo agoI can't think of literally anything meaningfully different about the Chrome UI from any other browser...
- vunderba 4mo agoYup – I think that Chrome’s Manifest V3 has severely limited the capabilities of ad blockers like uBlock Origin as well. I switched to Librewolf a while ago.
