    With brave I never see any pc or YouTube ads. With Firefox even with ublock origin I can’t get rid of those damn ads. That’s what keeps me on brave

      Which websites exactly do you still see ads on with ublock and not with Brave? Because I’ve not seen any ads in years with ublock.

      I don’t know why you’re getting ads… I run Firefox + uBlock just fine.

      But I also run NoScript and AdBlockPlus. Maybe try those?

      (Yes I know NoScript with uBlock is pretty redundant. Doesn’t really bother me to allow scripts on both to unbreak things. I like the double lock.)

        You should not run multiple ad blockers. uBO won’t be able to defuse anti-adblocker scripts if it has another ad blocker interfering.

        OTOH NoScript should be fine
