So then my use of crome will soon be stopped
The best time to stop using chrome was 10 years ago. The second best time is now.
In-built adblockesr are the way. Google has no power there.
Librewolf. Stop using chrome
Or Floorp (with Betterfox) if you find the ultraparanoia features and website breaking of Librewolf annoying. I think that'd be the option most people who use Chromium browsers are willing to transition to
I’d like to degoogle. Hearing a year or so ago that they were going to dismantle ad blockers was a good motivator for me to at least switch to Firefox.
I wish degoogling were simple. I mean it's mostly fine on PC, pretty much impossible on flagship Samsung phones though and on Google phones you have some important missing features (like not being able to use the tap-to-pay with a custom OS).
Also for both PC and phones, the Google IME for Japanese is just far better than any other Japanese IME. The other ones are far more clunky. There are alternatives, namely Mozc on PC, but they're just not even close in quality. I don't know any good alternatives on Android – I hope florisboard will be able to reach that point some time after it gets a dictionary/suggestions feature in a month or two (which I'm excited to start contributing to) but we'll have to see.
I imagine it's a similar story for Chinese and Korean.
Librewolf not only allows uBlock Origin, but AdNauseam (which Firefox blocked). And AdNauseam has Ublock Origin built into it nowadays.
Are you confusing Firefox with Chrome? It's the Chrome web store that Adnauseum was removed from. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adnauseam/
Firefox disabled it at one point, guess it came back into their good graces when my eye wasn't on the matter. But firefox is selling out it's users in other ways now
