  In the last few days I heard that many people are returning to Firefox due to a controversial Google decision that would make ad blockers stop working. I have never complained about unobtrusive ads, but there are some web pages that I swear cover more than 75% of the screen with them. I you know how to use the /etc/hosts file like the one from StevenBlack this won't be a problem, however. You can even block ads system-wide in Linux with just a single command (this one is assuming Ubuntu):

  Invidious is an alternative front-end to YouTube

  

  For youtube in particular, I have my own private Invidious instance and then I use Privacy Redirect to automatically redirect youtube requests to my invidious instance.. so I have a private account on that invidious instance to track channels without using youtube.com.

  This is the thing that sucks the most for me. There are workarounds like webapp-manager (https://github.com/linuxmint/webapp-manager), but the experience has been janky for me. I'm so disappointed Mozilla abandoned their work on PWA support.
