It gets my goat that people think it’s a good option. There are plenty of articles explaining some of the many issues with it, but a few are:

  1. It’s run by anti-LGBTQ+ crypto bros.
  2. It has ads right out of the box.
  3. It collected donations towards people who never signed up for them - then held them to ransom in exchange for the kind of information you should never share on the Internet.
  4. They’re a for-profit advertising company. “Privacy-centric” my elbow.

    I’m on Linux so no clue how it performs on Windows. I’ve been using Cromite on Android since 2024 with no issues. It has built-in Adblock, but uBlock works perfectly as well. Just need to enable extensions and install it.
