I'm probably not in the target market, but the slowest thing in a browser these days, for me, is the obnoxious closing of cookie banners and newsletter popups.

Hence, uBlock Origin + cosmetic filter list. The productivity boost is more than any keyboard assignment can ever do I guess.

Still think it was a mistake of gigantic proportions when Apple removed the legacy extension support. Their content blockers replacement is nowhere near comparable to uBlock Origin used to be.

Currently there is no way to block YouTube ads on Safari MacOS and all the advice for extensions that do just sends you in a loop of the same few (many of which are paid for) that don't manage to do it for the past few months.

Yes that’s why I switched from Safari to Firefox.
Yes, they're very annoying. I'm working on implementing extensions ASAP so you can use those on SigmaOS (or maybe even built-in natively? ;p)
