    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.

      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.
