Advice Request Would you switch Browsers for your favourite extension?

[Lenny_Fox]

Just curious with ManifestV3 slowly becoming reality I was wondering whether the web experience provided by an extension is more important for you than the browser.

Just post your thoughts

No, Brave has builtin adblocker

Not sure, Edge has built-in protection, but some cosmetic filtering would be nice. So, I will wait and decide later.

Sorry, can't edit the options any more. Don't care option should have been

Don't care, my browser has build in adblocker/antitracker (Brave, Opera, Edge) or facilitates extensions (like Firefox).

"Don't care" as i will definitely stay with Edge.

 

[Lenny_Fox]

I don't know whether I could handle not having the option to switch extensions, so I will wait and see how this pans out.

 

[Minimalist]

Don't care, I'll keep using Firefox.

 

[Digmor Crusher]

I have no loyalty to any browser, that being said, I despise advertising of any kind, so I would definitely find a combo that minimizes it.

I also voted "Don't care" because there is always Firefox and Microsoft says they are taking measures to make sure Ad blockers aren't compromised. So, as long as uBlock Origin works, I'll be fine.

Microsoft Edge now supports the Manifest V3 API, which has been controversial for preventing ad blockers in browsers.

No. I would simply use another extension or multiple ones. And since Google raised the limit from 30 thousand to 150 thousand, that will suffice (to me).

It depends on if the ads on web gets unbearably bad or not after whatever manifest v3 does to content blockers.

 

[Jan Willy]

My answer is: I don't care. With NextDNS and Adguard Desktop I can stay using all the browsers and filter lists I want. No need for extensions.

 

[Cortex]

Using Brave with AdGuard for Windows, so shouldn't be a problem.

Same for me. As long as uBlock Origin works, there will be no issue for me. However I am using all 4 major browsers Brave, Firefox, Chromium and Edge so I don't have to change any Browser.

Why would anyone switch from the Brave browser..

Some people have ethical and political issues with the creator/founder. No need to discuss them here, but I view it as a valid reason if you feel that conviction.

Voted yes. If this cripples Ublock Origin/Adguard then that's a deal breaker. I mean Firefox is still there waiting there for me.

I am only Brave while on phone. On Windows I am Edgy with shade of Chrome.
