The CPU spike and excessive SSD writes I experienced a couple of days ago when visiting the "What's New" page here on MT were caused by uBlock Origin Lite trying to block Reddit elements in posts. This issue doesn't occur when using Brave with its Shields enabled. So far, I've tried uBlock Origin Lite, AdGuard, and Ghostery on Microsoft Edge, as well as uBlock Origin on Firefox, and all of them have the same problem. I'll give tracking-blocking extensions a try to see if they can prevent it.

What keeps me from using Brave its unexplained more than average disk write rate.

I just wanted to test Brave Shields, though I won't be using it as my daily driver. By the way, has Vivaldi added any new ad-blocking lists, or are they still the same?

The same; I usually disable all and add those of AG (a samll percentage will be invalid) with that of hagezi pro (all valid).
They only added the option to set three different levels of blocking which lets me select the lists for each level; before I had only the option to disable all lists of adblocking and/or all lists of tracking blocking.

@Trooper I've confirmed that NextDNS now has a block list for Reddit,maybe that could be the solution to your problem.

I think this was meant for @lokamoka820 but thanks nonetheless.
