I this switch over too Brave Browser for YouTube watching only and it has been grate I still used safari for all my main other stuff but Brave Browser is is the 1st one has not gave me any issue with ads I have tried this about ever free ad block on the Mac app store and they have all gave me ads or or issues


and its like one one Adblock would give me media play issue like in photo 1

and in photo 2 the Adblock would not block ads in YouTube when you 1st start up a YouTube video in fact YouTube has found a way to buy pass your Adblock setting buy posting ads at 1st video the ads fitters needs fixing or some in

in photo 2 I noted the issue started a few days ago

its like all the Adblock on the Mac App Store are broken


any ways the Brave Browser has fix all of my issue and its been grate I can all so watch 4k video some in that safari can't do

I'm more into Firefox myself. I think it's also capable of 4k but I don't do it because my monitor is 1080P

Big whoop. 1) How many users use crypto currency? 2) Why should anyone care if Brave makes extra with an affiliate link - it's not like you were going to get that money.

Sure they like to push their extra features to make some side cash. Everyone needs money. They don't get any from me because I don't enable the features.

Again, big whoop.
