I'm all for using an ad blocker when there are so many ads it destroys the usability of the web page but sometimes I'm happy to accept ads when the web page is providing me with a service for free.
A recent example was the catch up for MotoGP on Quest. It simply won't work if it detects an ad blocker is activated and it's even smart enough to detect Brave's built in ad blocker which many web sites are not. So I turned it off which was fair play in exchange for watching the race.

Vivaldi + DuckDuckGo and also have Opera/Chrome/Edge installed - which browser to use depends on what I am doing. Opera/Vivaldi are for private browsing; Chrome for most stuff
