I've had some hideous collection of ABP, ublock, and some extension that hides all shorts all on chrome and I've somehow completely dodged all the drama in the past year. I've never had to manually update or fiddle with any settings. I've seen all the crap everyone else is getting, and I constantly think its right around the corner,, but nothing. Sometimes the page loads funny and just shows a black rectangle, and i think welp they finally got to me, but an immediate refresh always fixes it. Maybe one day I'll have to deal with it
