I guess my point was that adding uBlock Origin to Vivaldi is a simple 5 second process, so the claim that it is unsuitable as a replacement for Brave because the default ad/tracker blocker is less effective seems kind of pointless.
By default, sure. But uBlock is way more powerful when you configure it.
Seriously, take a look at their wiki. I doubt that Brave lets you choose exactly which domains to connect to on a per-site basis.
And do you really want an advertising company to make your adblocker? They’ve done shadier stuff.
Their point is to be an ethical ad company. So i still kinda trust them. Also, I use Firefox + uBlock Origin on Hard Mode both on PC and Android. Brave has really good, balanced ad blocker which does not break sites but block ads and trackers.
Brave’s ad-blocker is better than uBlock Origin?
There are some places where yes. Brave has VERY good, balanced ad blocker built-in.
