Because the performance of brave lib is a little better since it doesn't go through the plugin API
So should you use this now? Or keep uBlock origin? Or enable both for maximum protection?
it's up to you which one you wanna use, I'll keep using uBlock origin (both is overkill, you only need one for blocking ads)
Is it? Like YouTube is less laggy with that? Thats the only situation where i see actual delays by adblocking
Yes, it is. No, the delays on Youtube don't come from the performance of the adblocking code, so you won't notice many differences. But more efficient adblocking is good for everyone - noticeably more so on devices with batteries, but still helpful for everyone.
