I thought Firefox was best browser again because Google was going to make it impossible for ad blockers to work and edge is built on top of chromium so they were going to be in the same boat?

Edge has some dumbass defeat settings and you gotta customize it to your liking. Chrome works best but it still uses way too much resources

It did, and then less than a year ago Google announced they were killing adblockers, and everyone else having since moved to Chromium basically made Firefox relevant again.

On desktop I use a specific browser that lets me use all of my old add-ons. Because I can't surf the way I want on the new versions that have neutered the power of extensions to the point that it isn't even possible to do the things I want to do anymore. Add in the fact that "modern" browsers add literally nothing new that I use, when I have to use them it's like having one arm tied behind my back. When this browser stops being maintained I'm going to be a bit sad. The last thing tying me to the way things used to be. Like when gamefaqs virtually entirely broke xFAQs for me. I wish I could work on this stuff myself. But I can't make heads or tails of even the basic introduction lessons for this stuff. I simply don't have the mind for it.

Sorry for rambling on. I just feel like I'm losing the tiny bit of control and fun I had on the internet. One day I'll be pushed out all together. I don't fit in anywhere that isn't horrible in some way. I wish I were a better person. I'm not sure how much longer I'll be around anywhere. I'm so damn tired. I turn 40 next year. I don't know if I can be alone for the next 40 after that. But I'm not fit for this world. Just ignore it and keep going. There's no pain....

Ublock Origin, which also works on Firefox Mobile. Chrome and Edge don't allow you to install add-ons to their mobile apps.

Something about the use of Brave being an abusive behavior, lumped together with other things like mass database downloading. The language didn't appear to call out the ad-blocking nature of Brave, so I assumed that's all it was.

In fact, it happened twice. The first time, I just had to click a button to acknowledge that I wouldn't continue the behavior that triggered the ban. I was banned again about fifteen minutes later and had to fill out an appeal. I gain nothing from making this up and am accessing GameFAQs with Chrome like a good boy.

Couldn't find any support for what the moderator, or whoever it was, told me. I understand your doubt as I poked around on some of the other boards to see if other people had experienced this and found nothing.

This pretty much happened to me a year or so ago when I tried out Brave on my iPad. Got that same abusive behavior warning and had to stop using Brave and switch to Safari.

A few months ago, the ads were starting to make the site unusable (at least on my aging iPad). I thought maybe whatever the issue was with Brave has been fixed and switched back and have been using it without issue since. Now Im worried lol.

If this is based on New Bing people are in trouble. It brings back false information.

I asked which was older puffed rice or popcorn. N B tells me puffed rice found in New Mexico was dated earlier than popcorn found in Peru. When I asked for more info N B closed the topic.

I shudder to think of someone using N B to reserve housing or tables in a restaurant.
