Totally agree on that, I used the web without an ad blocker for years before going back due to having too many ads on YouTube, Google is slowly closing their walls and I may end up on Firefox at this rate
Firefox has always felt a bit clunky to me hence the reason why I went with brave: it's built on top of chromium but with a built-in adblocker, also some crypto rewards if you are into that(I'm not). Give it a go if you ask me.
