![]() ![]() Notable mention, you can use a user.js file to customize firefox aswell Here is a wiki with lots of cool browser customization tools, all of which has been tested and vetted by the freemediaheckyeah community (link is a Reddit frontend) My suggested alternative is to use a fork of Firefox (its open source) for your desktop, the best and most developed one is Librewolf. Mainstream browsers suck, and are not what you are looking for Brave also has a lot of black-box processes, and its while crypto thing with Brave_Coin is very strange and not trustworthy. Like brave, you can remove those sponsored stuff in the settings, but its annoying and at least for Firefox, they re-add the sponsored shortcuts every update cycle. The Mozilla corporation (who makes Firefox) is a nonprofit, and those sponsors (along with making google the default search engine) is how it makes money ![]() I will commit heresy by saying this, but chrome is probably the least annoying on pc out of the big ones, as long as your addons don't break, that you need like your life depends on it. Bam! Now I just opened Firefox on desktop and they got a welcome screen selling their VPN with 20% off. That said I am not sure firefox is the good guy either, or at very least out of the box firefox experience is worse. One might think it's youtube, and certainly is, but firefox doesn't have this, so brave either fails to block it or allows it on purpose. ![]() Youtube actually has a sponsored result on the top. They replaced all my home page links with sponsored links, and the background is even an ad for a mobile game. ![]() I just assumed that it's perhaps a bug, but when I was using edge it was doing the same thing to me constantly, to push their homepage, which was basically just an excuse to push ads. I use a home page replacing extension on desktop, and it was broken multiple times since last update. Goes without saying that I have paid ads disabled on desktop, but built in ads does sound dodgy in the first place. ![]()
