Pretty much, also encouraged me to download uBlock, and now I see how many items it blocks from pages like YouTube. Spoiler: It’s a lot.
Right?
I have two tabs open...one is a site that is overtly and actively promoting products to me, with literal links to retailers where I can buy the stuff they're promoting...the other is YouTube.
The promotional site's uBlock counter is at 4.
YouTube's is at...139.
Leave that YouTube tab open open for a day and see how many thousands of items uBlock has blocked.
I see absolutely insane numbers on Google docs, 10000+ blocked. My total per year is now over 5 million. A lot more intense than a few years ago, where it took multiple years to reach 3 million.
Holy shit, I have multiple tabs open and have only been using Firefox as my default browser for about 1.5 3-months (August 9th). Each YouTube tab has over 10k blocks and lifetime blocks since installation is over 4.1 million!
Edit: found the document I made in Obsidian to plan my move from Brave to Firefox and the created data is August 9th.
Wow I haven't even looked for all time blocks! I'll have to look...
Yup, I left youtube up on my laptop all day today and this is ublocks total. It's fucking crazy that some people don't bother with adblockers
