barreldragon88 05/29/24 2:53:24 PM #1:	It started happening recently where a Discover ad would pop up at the bottom of the page and freeze everything and i would have to refresh to get rid of the ad, fucking annoying. Don't know how it's bypassing Adblock, but perhaps I need to switch to a different browser finally? --- Long live Saint Seiya!! <cite>barreldragon88 posted [p:980611053] in Anyone els...

Thorn 05/29/24 3:44:57 PM #7:	Don't know if this is your issue specifically here but Chromium browsers are moving to Manifest V3 which impacts the ability for adblockers to... well block ads in some cases - including uBlock Origin (though they are trying their best to figure out how to best tackle it) Firefox is keeping Manifest V2. I've definitely seen instances where uBlock Origin on Chromium browsers can't stop ads where uBlock Origin on Firefox can so certain ads are starting to adjust. --- May you find your book in this place.

Dark_Young_Link 05/29/24 4:09:21 PM #8:	Adblock sold out years ago, and as stated Chrome has a financial incentive to break adblockers. Firefox + Ublock Origin is the way to go (Some other non Chromium browsers should work as well). --- https://imgur.com/gOGzcN4 <cite>Dark_Young_Link posted [p:980612024] in Anyone els...

Wanglicious 05/30/24 4:03:48 PM #17:	on on mobile brave is leagues ahead of chrome. that's half the motivation to using it in browser too, since it's still chromium based you can have access to tabs from other devices, which was the biggest thing keeping me in chrome for the longest time. but the built in ad blocking just makes things so much better on everything. news sites or searches for recipes or whatever else are actually usable again. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. <cite>Wanglicious posted [p:980626102] in Anyone els...
