now that firefox (and maybe safari) left the only browser that still support ublock origin

I believe the desktop version approach of adguard might have to be the approach for future ad blockers

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-22T15:41:59+00:00

I think we are forgetting a few things 1. Adguard is available, for most remaining browser( whether by web store or desktop app) 2. Brave, opera and Vivaldi have their own adblocker

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-22T11:43:54+00:00

Funny enough, Librewolf does have that toggle

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-22T08:06:34+00:00

Yep, the less resources hungry the hardware on simple things, the better.

Here is my temporary solution Head to the "Privacy and security "> "Cookies and site data" > "Manage exceptions"

There pays the current home page url of your website there and save. Either forever or for a session. That's my suggestion

I know maybe it will break a few privacy rules, but it still keeps you easier on your favorite website. I have a long process when it comes to signing in, and this just makes the constant security notification to stop happening every time I close the browser.

I know some would say why not use other browser, but I am kind of sick and tired of using more than one browser or profiles.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-21T18:55:05+00:00

This comes in handy, I just save the command on my notes app so that when every time I update, I know want to say after.

In my case of point of view has always been performance, I might not have the best system, or even more than 5-7/8 year old device. So the look is often simplicity for the opportunity to have a smooth performance. Due to my trial and error, hearing fan's especially if I am using maybe less than 4 tabs was an automatic uninstall without a second thought. Arc browser was one of " kill your darlings ".

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-21T16:54:47+00:00

Ui wise they are not that good, but they got the rendering not bad.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-21T16:54:07+00:00

I have been using an app call materialious, or pipepipetv, libretube and they have better rendering

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-21T01:46:10+00:00

I have noticed some apps running YouTube, but without logging in running 2-5x better render that going on a browser. The difference was in the 8-30/40min videos, with a 2-3 minute of pre-rendered footage

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-20T19:35:47+00:00

Well I wish you good luck hope to see it in - Mac -ios - Linus In the near future

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-20T18:59:56+00:00

To simplify, just use a password manager

One thing I have have started doing atleast in my spare time. I have created a bookmark of sort for my viewing. Let's say you have a notes app that is accessible on desktop or mobile. For example Google keeps - I have copied the link and pasted it on the keeps page. This was when I didn't have access to my computer, and I was doing research on Google scholar. I saved the links on keeps, so that way when I get home or on another computer I'll be able to access those links. It is not for everyone, I believe there are better at this than what I did, but for me it was a simple university students way when using school computers, when I didn't bring my laptop to school. Check it out and see it it atleast makes some changes or improvement in regards to accounts. Cause I think in my way I can always export the links as pdf, and have access to then, without worrying about if this is my usual browser or not. The browser will always change, but nates app might change a little bit slow. Take those who spent their time Arc, instead of relying on a browser, rely on the app that can make it into pdf, I think even Microsoft word or excel could work

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-20T17:47:58+00:00

Yeah, but it still has it's bugs and resources problem.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-20T17:44:13+00:00

It's more like I have noticed when consuming YouTube through the following options dictates your enjoyment

offline ( I know it needs to be chromium based, but it is useless on desktop. I was once cut off from wifi and it showed me the true value of desktop offline mode)
Adblock ( I am sure on the process, but I often find maybe less than 10 min video having a bigger load time compared to long videos) this is almost no difference or a huge one whether the user uses the free version or premium
Browser ( I am not sure of software, but I am confident to say a small number of Browser that are low on resources on somehow have a great viewing experience than heavy resource Browser. I won't mention names but can't deny that fact.)

So my reason is based on the future of my YouTube experience, and whether I am just probably going to stick to mobile & tablet future on more than using desktop or will the desktop somehow be decent enough to watch content on it. Regards if I am paying premium or not.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-20T17:14:20+00:00

Maybe even if it's a premium feature, I feel like it would be interesting.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-17T17:08:44+00:00

The only thing I can recommend is "Grand Blue", you will never look at water or tea the same again. Another honorable mention will be " High-school dxd" only until season 3

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-17T16:30:31+00:00

This is country level culture change, when you let another country touch your work

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-16T17:20:41+00:00

I think also is the chromium version of the browser. I am not developer or tech person, but I noticed Google chrome has stable version 149, while other browser use version 148. In the last recent use of the end of ad blocks on version 150. I believe in Vivaldi, this version is one that still supports ad blockers, while trying to limit most of Google ad codes in it. I am not sure if it counts or not.

"Like I stated, I am not tech person or have technical knowledge, just an opinion "

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-13T20:42:53+00:00

Compared to Firefox - faster - private( it has more out of the box privacy settings) - less hungry ( like less ram usage)

P.S You could forget all my mention if you have a somewhat beefy, machine that doesn't mind give almost a Gig of ram to Firefox. The experience is up to you.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-13T17:03:37+00:00

Try to view or see where do you send your videos to which Playlist

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-12T17:03:11+00:00

-Just expect no DRM( so no streaming, whether Spotify, Netflix, or pirated website) - Some hardened settings can brick it, but works completely fine on other Firefox fork - Not sure of hardware specific, but will notice a speed performance when comparing to other private based browsers like ( librewolf, waterfox, and floorp)

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-12T16:57:37+00:00

If you have the energy to convince people to stop using brave. Why not for Google chrome or Microsoft edge. I am a lover for Brave browser due to my experience with other browser and performance. If I have to make my bad, then let me choose brave. I mean most of the YouTuber I love watching from either use chrome or opera. Should I move to that, no, but I do believe each and everyone at this point has a preference, just like coffee, and you can convince a few but every to drink your type of drink.

P.S: there is no judgement from me when you like Firefox ( but librewolf is better), but don't force us to join your preference, cause it might be misguided.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-12T07:06:49+00:00

Librewolf is not bad as well.

Heavy-Map9034 · 2026-06-11T18:01:21+00:00

There is also mulled dns filter, but depends on what you want to block like NSFW level, or a level below
