Ditch chrome
Of course it's slowing google. It's slowing their income
I found I was only able to register, and login, after I used Firefox (and verified my email to login). Glad I checked here to see it was more Chrome related.
Not really. It just has to keep a separate database for the cookies and local storage (or just an extra column?) not sure how it works underneath the hood, but there's no noticeable performance impact.
and this is not just you using a billion blocklists?
Using all those blocklists is still a whole lot faster than the increased load times from loading ads.
In the next 6 to 12 months Google is removing most adblock functionality - switch to Firefox (also Firefox mobile is amazing with uBlock origin )
They're not allowing remote connections for security , but you need a lot of 3rd party data to keep track of lists of ever changing malicious websites and ads to block

Unpopular opinion (maybe) - But i'm using Edge, works with chrome extensions, I use BingAI for quick searches and the cleanest looking vertical tabs I've used without elbow grease and extensions
No, you can be quite certain that's an unpopular opinion. And it should be.
I have equal feelings of appreciation and disappointment that I've not fully integrated with the hive mind
Firefox is the way.
