If you absolutely need a Chromium browser (if you’re a privacy advocate, I don’t understand why. Using a Chromium browser means Google can do whatever they want with web standards), use Vivaldi or something.

my main issie is the web really is built for chrome

Indeed, although I rarely run into issues, but people not using Firefox will make this worse. Chromium, and by extension Google, has a monopoly on the web

Just to make sure, uNlock or uBlock origin?
