Using ungoogled chromium for now. Ublock works without hassle.

Note that it's MORE complicated to setup ungoogled chromium because it doesn't contain any basic syncing service and update service. You need to do the first time setup manually as said in its FAQ. You also need to setup your own or use existing account / bookmark syncing service as well as software update service for convenience, e.g., vaultwarden server and bitwarden extension for account syncing.




not trying to convince you to switch, but is there a reason you need to use chrome and jump through a bunch of hoops instead of just using a browser like firefox?

Not the other guy, but chrome is just feels so much better to use. Sure you can use something else and eventually get used to it, but a lot of things just feel off in firefox. I used firefox years ago and the switch the chrome immediately felt better, anytime I've tried to go back the switch immediately worse. I don't begrudge anyone not wanting to do that.
