I built this computer just under 3 months ago and I'm at 5.26M.

I've been using ublock on the same browser for over a year now and I'm only at 2.3M. What kind of sites are you guys on?

Probably majority piracy sites because considering my habits I hit a combined count of a 1 year old desktop browser + 1½ year old mobile browser 993k in total. And I am online for an unhealthy amount already.

Where are you all browsing? My PC is about 1 year old and in all it's lifetimeshas seen 700k blocks.
Now mind you I am browsing a fair bit mobile and watch YT on my TV but even with mobile firefox + ublock combined it's 993k in total.
