It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware. Given Google's overwhelming presence in the browser market, this is unconscionable. We should all despise the ad-tech business, and have no sympathy for the companies getting whacked by Google's actions. But we should not permit one monopolist to replace them all. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/12/year-review-googles-corporate-paternalism-browser

    On android firefox just doesn’t perform so well as Chrome does and can seem slow and buggy.

      Firefox on Android allows you to install uBlock Origin. That alone is a major improvement over Chrome.

      You can also try out Vivaldi, which is based on Chrome and also has a built in ad blocker. I don’t think you can install uBlock Origin on Android tho…
