I thought it would be helpful for all the good people of Lemmy World if we shared our browser setups.

I’m mostly a laptop user when it comes to the Internet. I’ve been using Firefox with the Ublock Origin addon and it makes browsing the web so much less ad filled.

For youtube specifically I’ve had the best results with Chrome and an extension called Clear Skies for ad skipping.

Share you own browser setup. What do you use to surf the wild waves of the web to avoid the sharks and the sharp rocks?

Firefox with Ghostery add-on, mostly because its built-in cookie-nag blocker. Also use Bitwarden and Dark Reader. Pretty much the same setup on both desktop and mobile.
