This. I’m pretty sure this is a result of the ad engine changes they made to chrome a few months ago. Manifest V2 is what enables uBlock Origin to be so effective iirc and they’re removing it in chrome in favor of Manifest V3.

Firefox on the other hand still supports V2.

I was curious how people feel about Braves new Browser? I usually stick to Firefox but I've given it a try. It however does seem to be chromium based.

Yeah its just reskinned chromium like the rest, but it'still nowhere near as bad as chrome, edge and the other telemetry filled ones.

Support Firefox!
