I can tolerate ads, but I still wish we had a better financing model for content on the internet at large. Ad tech has a tendency to creep into places where it doesn't belong. Like task bars, or explorers.
Only if you use Windows or OEM/Stock Android. I happen to not see ads ever.
This whole “for-profit owned by a non-profit” paradigm needs to globally crushed right the fuck now. It should never have been allowed to happen and should not be tolerated.
A saving grace in terms of browser engines. They are the only real competitor to Chromium.
