Fun fact, did you know that google deliberately makes their products run worse on browsers like Firefox so users will think the browsers are slow? Please support Firefox, it's the only real browser not based on Googles technology (like Brave is), and it's actively fighting Google's monopoly on web browsing.

Firefox is based. Glad I switched over recently.
Librewolf is a fork of Firefox, and is absolutely better for privacy and security; way more based than Firefox, you should check it out m8 :)

User experience is actually better if you're not using chrome since you won't be subject to Google's a/b tests
Firefox for life! Well as long as they don't go evil or bankrupt. I am not surprised at all though.
- Kneecap plugin performance especially for AdBlock plugins claiming it's for security.
- Notify users that those plugins are slowing down Chrome.
- ???????
- Profit... or people hopefully switch
/r/firefox is also still closed and opened up on https://fedia.io/m/firefox. So firefox people are cool in general. 🦊
I stand with Firefox.
It's crazy how low the firefox market share is. It’s like 3% worldwide.
For such a good browser too!
Mistake #1, using chrome. Just switch to firefox ~~or brave~~ just use firefox
What a cunning plan!
I mean, when an extension needs to block 300 ads...
And some sites are trying to load them again, and again, and again, so the poor plugin has no choice than to go hard on resources.
Such a baseless statement. Ad blockers actually improve performance by removing random junk videos, and images from running on the site.
I'm so glad to have switched to Firefox.
Well, there is your problem. Using Chrome.
You should switch from chrome to firefox. Less tracking built in to the browser. Also chrome is planning to deprecate manifest V2 which will break all adblockers.
If you wanna keep using adblocks you should start moving away from Chrome/Chromium-based browsers as soon as possible!!
Bahaha, what a scummy tactic. I suppose if you cast a wide net, you're bound to catch some fish though.

Is that specifically a browser issue, as opposed to a webscript issue for detection?
Is it still an issue in Librewolf, Brave, and Ungoogled Chromium?
It is a self inflicted wound basically. Google killed support for how those ad blockers work.
