Question for my #Linux peeps :
Is there another browser or browser-tool that blocks #YouTube ads as effectively as #Brave browser?
I've been using Brave exclusively to watch YouTube videos because I NEVER see a single ad, ever. I can't remember the last time I had to watch or skip through an ad on YouTube and it's nice. I'm spoiled for that.
I'm looking for an alternative to Brave that doesn't have problematic politics behind it.
Thanks!

Audio Analysis: Eurovision Broadcaster Muted Sounds of Crowd Booing and Shouting “Free Palestine!”

Imagine booing a woman who was shot at by Palestinian terrorists and who had to lay under corpses to escape death.
Protest against the government if you disagree with the way they are waging that war, but nobody with any humanity should want to make Yuval Raphael feel unwelcome at any event. She is as much a victim as any one in this war.

The UK is one of the wealthiest countries in history.
But that wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, where it's used to buy yachts and private jets instead of building up public services.
A 1% wealth tax on net assets over £10 million could raise £10 billion a year.

Operation Gideon’s Chariots: IDF unleashes major Gaza campaign to finish off Hamas
Military says troops under Southern Command—including both active duty and reservists, have begun extensive maneuvers throughout enclave; escalation comes at talks in Qatar on ceasefire, hostage deal continueYnet (ynet news)
I love the framing of trying to defeat Hamas like another group (most likely more militant) wouldn't just replace it. Just like what happened with the PLO.
A little consideration of *why* people fight rather than the superficial groups they fight under would help the conversation.
