    I agree

    I'm using chrome, sponsorblock and adblock+. Google hasn't told me to turn it off yet.

    Maybe it's because I'm in the EU?

    If it starts becoming a problem, I intend to look into writing a pull request to fix the firefox UX issues

    Fair enough! In that case I also wouldn't be pressured to jump ship, in fact the only reason I jumped back to firefox in the first place was because chrome couldnt handle the amount of tabs I had and they started crashing
