Great explainer about the changes, and reasons why it actually behooves Google to continue to allow ad blockers in some form. All that said...this still reaffirms my decision to go Firefox, always and forever, to get the most complete privacy options.

I've used Firefox for so many years...can't remember precisely. If there was a better option, then I'd be open to it.

Only better option I can think of is not using the web

Yeah same, its been almost 10 years for me. I briefly tried other options like brave, but kept coming back to Firefox

Safari/GNOME Web just added extension support.
