The YouTuber would be better of if you donated 1 cent instead of watching an ad.
This one and the Tux one have been getting a lot of use lately thanks to Chrome and Win11.
I have embraced firefox as my primary browser now. I have a few remaining cookies on chrome that I have to re-establish in FF, and then I can't even imagine any reason I'd even need to use chrome again other than some obscure internal web app that I can spin up on a throwaway virtual machine.
TL;DR... Google is limiting how many rules that extensions can have. Ad blockers need ~300k to run effectively, Google will limit them to 30k in Chrome citing "privacy and a light weight user experience" as the reason. This change will effectively make ad blockers in chrome all but useless. The solution will likely mean switching to more privacy focused browsers, such as Firefox.
Brb, installing ad blocker part 1 through 10
So you just need to to some regex magic to reduce the amount of rules?
Firofox pls

It made me install grapheneOS and I actually like my phone again.
Same here. I daresay my phone is now finally again as nice as in the early days of smart phones.
Stop using Chrome then.
Google *’s * plan could be a privacy disaster.
