On Windows the new tab experience feels very sluggish for me, although I don't use Vivaldi as my main browser so can't comment on the rest. Chrome, by comparison, feels completely smooth and instant. Firefox is a touch slow compar

That's true if you're prepared to update the file yourself all the time. In my experience there are a lot of URLs to maintain and I am ok with offloading that trust to a 3rd party like Easylist who will maintain the list for me. A

One downside to this approach is that you still see where the banner was with an "address not found" block. I switched to uBlock origin some time ago which I prefer as 1) it collapses the ad blocks so you never realise they were t

Meta: I opened this on mobile in a background tab and was quite surprised that my browser (Chrome on iOS) forcibly switched tabs to focus on the new tab. It seems it was because the site uses an alert to say "can't receive input o

I enjoyed reading it. I liked that fact that it wasn't a huge list, just 6 points. Well described, good examples, and well structured with the "Best workaround" sections. To me it felt big enough to hold real value but small

Are you talking about work-in-progress (WIP) limits? I've seen tools enforce this so you can't pull another story into the current list. Other tools let you pull but highlight the fact that you're going over the WIP limits by
