I actually deleted my google account yesterday. Felt so good. I'm finally free.

Ublock origin is a life changer. 😅
More people finding out every day that big tech is your enemy and should be treated as such.
Me: Oh no, what will i do! Absolutely fuck all
Of course it's slowing google. It's slowing their income
I use both Firefox and Opera (Opera One & Opera GX)
I use Opera is because of its AI, Aria. and I like it. unlike Bing AI ofc......
I found I was only able to register, and login, after I used Firefox (and verified my email to login). Glad I checked here to see it was more Chrome related.
and this is not just you using a billion blocklists?
Using all those blocklists is still a whole lot faster than the increased load times from loading ads.
