the sheer number of people I know that still use chrome despite me telling them that chrome is the reason their adblocker doesn't work as well and doesn't work at all on youtube blows my mind. They care enough to use an adblocker but then the most intrusive ads (long video ads, midrolls, etc.) they just shrug.
And thats not to mention the huge number of people that just don't block any ads. Ads are literally spyware in addition to being annoying, but apparently that's fine
My version of ublocker still works on my Chromebook so I fly with it.
that I for sure understand, it ain't broke... (although chromebooks are just google data harvesters through and through, I personally would run linux on it and ditch chromeos, but thats just me)
