The trick with Apple's advertising is that it's kinda opt in. If you don't want to deal with apple's advertising, don't buy an apple product.

If you don't want to deal with Google's advertising, good luck

Apple doesn't sell me 5 consecutive ads in a row on YouTube.

They still sell you.

Just wait and it gets more.

Google didn't have ads in the beginning.

Until Apple starts messing up Safari to increase that part of their business, I'll keep using it. Chrome was perfect before and didn't need more changes outside of security updates. It was "enshitified" after Google had all the market share and users locked-in. There is no incentive for Chrome to get better since their is no realistic competition. Chromium may get better since Brave and other browsers use it under the hood.

Meh, Safari and Brave are crap compared to Chrome(ium).

Brave is chromium. And how is chrome better (or worse) than safari? They both just work, and safari is even better for laptops in terms of battery life in my experience.

Brave is slower than chromium from my experience, had issues related to bookmarks when I last tried it, and it doesn't do stuff it claims to - such as privacy, ad blocking, etc.

Safari has weird Apple-isms like nonstandard shortcuts, weird UI, and the dev tools are just kinda shit overall.
