Same. The adblocker in Brave is great, its been ages since I ditched uBo and I've still to see a single ad. Built-in adblockers are good, because Google has no power there. Firefox, instead, its still a thing exclusively because of uBO i.e., the work of an external, unpaid developer. The say uBO disappears, is the day FF dies. Mozilla is so busy wasting time and money on unrelated stuff and huge CEO paychechs that they have had no the time to add and inbuilt advlocker to FF, which instead has useless crap such as Pockets and an opt-out ad-measurement tool which nobody asked for.

Here in Europe many schools are doing this too. As a father of an (almost) teenger, I'm they are.

I'm done recommending stuff, because my use case is not necessarily your use case. I can only tell you that Brave is the sweet spot for me, at the moment.

That's why I use Arch but avoid Firefox. Balance is the key.

I have a couple of subdomains there and yes, it may take a few days for the confirmation. I guess there's indeed some kind of human review.

I was just kidding about the "I use Arch, BTW" meme ;-)
