Use Firefox, uBO works great. While I really enjoy seeing people find creative technical workarounds, the reason for it being needed in the first place is Googles fight against Adblockers with Manifest V3. Firefox allows people to sidestep this artificial downgrade of adblocking capabilities.

But performance? Question mark?
Ads and other third party stuff are the major performance problem. Spending 1 millisecond of cpu time to block megabytes of ads and javascript (that would take much longer than 1 millisecond to run) is well worth it IMO.
Webpages run a lot better when I block all that extra shit from running!
