It's a good thing Vivaldi's ad-and-tracker-blocker is still there (although you can install Chrome extensions in Vivaldi though)

I have:

-Brave as my browser

-Ublock Origin

-DNS-wide AdBlock

-Youtube sponser block

I barely see any ads now, except those that pop up as an overlay and nag you, and some of them can be block manaully.
