Any recommendations for a fast browser?  It would appear, "Brave" has raised enough interest from ad blocking, more and more web pages are blocking.

I like Iron, but it's no different where adblock is concerned, so when sites like Wall St Urinal refuse to allow me content, they don't get my hits supporting them either.

Yeah, but I hadn't really seen any real feed back at the time. Did you try it?

Yes, but I have add blocks on my system.  I have it about 2 years
and they update it about once a month now.

No, the reason I refuse to use it is what they did over the marriage issue.

I just loaded Lunarscape on a machine, maybe I'm a sucker for Netscape...

The increasingly frequent updates to Brave have soured me on it.
