Some users with adblockers installed have noticed that videos are skipping straight to the end all of the sudden.

    Any reason for picking it over all the other chromium browsers?

      It blocks in line ads and trackers, that’s why I have been using it.

        Ungoogled chromium with some privacy extensions would probably be a similar experience.

            Good. Every chromium-based browser is evil because it’s Chromium based and therefore helps enable Google’s disastrous web hegemony.

            If you think Firefox’s lack of 100% compatibility with Google’s self-serving bullshit is a bug instead of a feature, you’re part of the problem.
