    My place of work requires Microsoft Edge or Google chrome. I’m having trouble with the ad blockers not working. Is there some combination that I should be using that would circumvent this? Or is the only option firefox? Obviously, everything I own at home and personal devices are Firefox :)

      Edge with ublock works. Have to clear cache every once in a while.

      Use an alternative fromt end in edge. Piped is a good one and there are a lot of public instances available https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/wiki/Instances
