It's gotten to the point where I have to re-load each YT tab three times before the video ever starts playing - only because I use uBlock.

Still better than watching ads, but it is getting annoying.

I switched from Chrome to MS Edge and don't have that YouTube ad-blocking issue with uBlock anymore. Other than that, MS Edge works exactly like Chrome.

MS Edge is Chrome, with a slight MS reskin.

MS Edge allows extensions that Chrome does not. It still fully supports uBlock Origin.

I did not know that - but surely since it's based on Chrome, that means they're going to have to follow suit at some point?

The Chromium browser code is open source.

I thought the changes were to do with manifest v3, and that was part of chromium. I didn't realise that was added to chrome after the fact.
