if I don’t use their rewards program and they still block ads then it’s a win-win for me.
A founder with despicable views is not great, but again by using his product but not the monitization features I’m not really contributing anything to him.
Chrome with a fancy skin that blocks ads… is there another trusted browser that does the same thing with chrome level security that I can try? Even Edge is Chrome with a fancy skin now.
Just to clarify I do not browse with Brave, I only use it as a launcher for YouTube.
I use Firefox for general browsing and clear all cookies and history every shutdown. The problem I had was I had been rotating UBO, ABP, AdBlock, ghostry, Twitch Ad Block etc. and they all kept messing up browsing, YouTube, or Twitch in one way or another.
Brave was the only one to not fail on YouTube at any time in the last year, so I kept it just for YT.
Fair. I would say you don’t need most of those. Just try uBO alone. Add others as needed. But realistically you should not have to. All you should have to do is add a block list to uBO.
Thanks for the details…

Fair. I would consider Firefox as well. With uBlock Origin you can use YouTube ad free too. And you help increase web diversity. Win win.
