which is why vivaldi purposefully added a blocker engine into the browser to side-step the extension limitations. It includes some default lists, as well as allows you to add your own with support for ublock, adguard, and ABP syntax and scriptlets. then all you need to do is goto https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets and add whatever offical asset lists you want… is it as good as FF + uBO, no, but it is something.
How would you say it’s a turd? I assume because it’s still chromium based, but I don’t want to put words in your mouth.
It’s my browser of choice for my work computer but I do run Firefox at home and on mobile.
There’s a popular phrase “you can’t polish a turd”. The meaning in this case being that if you put a nice UI on chromium it’s still chromium.
I am familiar with the phrase. And I was correct assuming you were referring to chromium as the culprit.
In case anyone didn’t know, you actually can polish a turd.

I’m not going to watch a video about polishing a turd but I assume the turd remains a turd.
You’ll not I didn’t actually make the claim that its not possible.
Yeah, chromium based means adblockers cannot work as effectively.
