Actually installed it right after reading to give it a try. It made me uninstall AdBlock Pro after a few minutes. Thanks for the tip!
Really? What made it so good? Mainly: 1. It asked me if i want to run it in private mode, and let me know the consequences at install time. 2. With ABP i had some sites with "disable ad-blocker on this page, or you won't see the content", which worked out of the box with UB sucessfully filtering out all the ads. 3. Removed that youtube commercial spots, even on the videos ABP failed doing so. I use Brave Browser and am happy with the stuff being blocked. I don't want to go all the way and seek a fully add free environment. Sites gotta make those server bills paid.
Yes, to a certain degree of acceptability. If you have more than three ad-zones on one page, or if they're repositioning so they're displayed all the time, regardless how much you scroll the page away from them, if they hog too much resources and limit battery life, it makes them kind of unbearable to me. I'm an old school power user. PC Energy and resources were precious back then, pretty much everbody of my type coded and used their PCs responsibly in terms of efficiency. Today it's so much not the same. I'm quite picky there. i can well accept a single ad on a fixed position on a page, sporting some static image data and text, or maybe two of them. EDIT: I just checked and found out i'm running "uBlock Origin", by the way.

Isn't that the point of Brave? You accept BAT for your ad views from some and give BAT to others to help with server bills; that way you're in control. uBlock doesn't block Brave ads.

I’ve got Bat ads at maximum and click every pop-up (mostly proton e-mail and crypto sites). The few BAT earned each month go directly to the sites I vist most ... if they accept BAT 😏

Hm, ok. On most sites with unblockable ads I found a simple Javascript toggler can get rid of their crap and the ads. I use it from time to time. Personally I believe it's my computer and I should be able to control what I see and download onto it. I also strongly believe in subscription models for valuing information and find the whole "ad supported model" to be 100% bullshit and a return to the Hearst News rags and that crappy Broadway play "Newsies". But that's a very different discussion.

I gave him 12 on purpose so he is now at 100. It is quite a nice piece of art.

Thx! ... I needed that. .. More then I would like to admit. I officially HATE elon musk. Dodge was perfect and it was chill. It was a perfect trading environment with good flow of quick trades and plenty volumes. Then that prick decided to think he is doing stuff and everyone is behaving so weird on most of the trades. Like they would imagine the guy is awake 24/7 or has someone trading for him and they do weird random stuff. Or he does have someone hired for him that is a f^cking n00b trader and just constantly sh!ts the bed in a massive way. Normal people can't even count on the charts, they are like loose surface details that no one pays attention to them and everyone buys stuff in a retarded wacky way. Dodge is ruined until it reaches higher prices that prick billionaires can't influence the price of. In this regard , BTCitcoin is 10 times better for pricks like him that won't be able to move the price not even 500$. edit*: I felt like I traded a whole day with everyone fearing elon breathing down their neck and coming in to swoop up the price and everyone was so fearful of just playing the charts as you normally do with most crypto. Edit(2)*: He should just let the market do its thing and f^ck off and have a minimum participation if he likes to buy into sh!tcoins. And be silent about it when there is actual activity in the markets.

I'm more annoyed with the fact that he gives people false hope that he will do anything with the price, but the only thing he is doing is just political meddling and making poor people that are new&fresh&n00b at trading lose money.

None of them know of my foray into Bitcoin. I understand your desire to keep your savings secret, but I am overcome by the desire to hide one for personal use in my backyard fenced by a high fence
