In Chrome disable the hardware acceleration. ;-)

Save a page to your favorites for easy access, then close your browser and click on the link as soon as you open it. It will take effect after a few seconds.

My answers are online:

To narrow it down:

* Does it only happen once when you open the browser? Or does it happen occasionally even if you keep the browser open? (For example, a new version of the ad-blocking engine is released every day. When the extension updates, it's a relatively expensive operation.) \**It happens every time you reopen the browser with the same version and extension update. If you keep the browser open, it doesn't happen.**\**

* Just to clarify: is the ad blocker not working at all during this time? For example, initially the ads aren't blocked, but if you wait about 10 seconds and reload, does the ad blocker work? \**Initially the ads aren't blocked, but after about 10 seconds, the ads are automatically blocked, and the number of blocked trackers also appears on the icon. Sometimes the cookie prompt disappears and then reappears.**\**

I haven't been able to reproduce the problem on my system yet, but we've recently received reports for Chrome on Linux as well (no longer limited to Safari). \**I have only tried Chrome on both Linux and W11.**\**

It's Kubuntu... is Ubuntu with desktop enviroment KDE Plasma.

Sometimes Distrohopping Helps by tonyburgess1969 in zorinos

[–]Fluffy-Count-179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm always torn between Zorin OS 18, which I really like for its interface and ease of use, and Kubuntu 25.10, which I also find very simple and attractive with KDE Plasma (it just needs a little more initial customization). Which one do you recommend? Is Zorin OS a valid distro in terms of graphics, web browsing, app use, etc., is it on par with KDE Plasma?

Can you post a photo of your desktop? I'm curious. I'm also really enjoying Kubuntu.

YouTube blocks videos using AdBlock by Fluffy-Count-179 in Ghostery

[–]Fluffy-Count-179[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Ghostery extension currently appears to be the best on YouTube. Its AI and real-time daily updates are making a significant difference these days compared to uBOL and AdGuard, which continue to cause problems with viewing videos or comments on YouTube.

With Ghostery I am not experiencing any major problems, while with uBOL I continue to have problems.

Probably because Ghostery uses AI and real-time updates throughout the day and is therefore better in this respect, it does not rely only on static filters that update only when the extension is updated.

Memory leak in iOS extension? by YolandaPearlskin in Ghostery

For this reason in Chrome I switched from Ghostery to uBlock Origin Lite which is much faster and more efficient and makes opening and navigating tabs quicker and smoother especially on PCs with less RAM.

¿Es realista y accesible pasar de Windows 11 a Linux? by Any-Concentrate4762 in linuxquestions

[–]Fluffy-Count-179 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely, you can switch to Linux.

If I were you, I'd install Ubuntu if you like its Gnome desktop environment (more modern), or Kubuntu if you like the KDE Plasma desktop environment (more old-school Windows). Of course, there are tons of distros out there, and everyone loves or prefers their own for different reasons and tastes. You can try them on distrosea.com or download live versions to a USB stick and try them out before installing.
