I have my own IoT ecosystem, and often when I add to it I feel a little guilty.
Because half the time I am not creating something that's never been done. It's just never been done my way, or on the particular platforms I target, or whatever.
All of my touchpad drivers operate the same way, using the same basic interface. That was worth it to me to create drivers that were like that, so I could easily port my code to all the different IoT devices out there.
My graphics library was the first to support TrueType fonts on IoT and embedded without megs of PSRAM. My graphics library is still the only one to support SVG (yes, the graphical web technology) on the same. That was worth it to me.
I also try to defend it to myself before I make it. I just don't know if my reasons are rationalizations.
Particularly when my dependency graph on a typical project looks like this:
Dependency Graph

Chrome, then they wouldn't allow AdBlock so I went back to FF, which I had used for years.
Then I start having problems getting links to work, I was getting a lot of "That site can't be reached" errors so I went to Edge to see if it was a browser issue. I was still getting errors!
Turned out to be with the Server 2019 I have as a file server here at the house. For some reason it started having DNS issues and when I set my Windows 11 machine back to using Auto DHCP it cleared every up and it is now working for FF.

Eh? I run Chrome and have never had a problem with AdBlock - or at least uBlock - except with YT who have been running a blocker war for a year or two now*
Chrome has never refused to run it, and it "just works" with whitelists for sites like CP.
* YT appears to be losing, with updates within hours of them changing it - and the number of people who use ad blockers going up because they had never heard of them before YT started trying to ban them ...

My gripe is with YouTube, they've gotten very aggressive with AdBlockers.

They have, and more people are installing them as a result ... 
If they didn't throw so many at each page they would probably get whitelisted more - but I've just opened a page (on the latest GTA V weekly update) and uBlock shows it blocked 77 ads on that single page ...

Needless sensory overload, it's no wonder that AdBlock and the like are so popular.

I don't use an ad blocker, other than what the browser might block by default, and I use Pi-Hole separately--which can't do anything about the YT video ad(s) they play before each video. Those are getting increasingly annoying, to the point where I've given up on multiple instances and just closed the browser window because I figured I don't really need to watch a particular video after all, given I'm first presented with a 30s ad I can't skip...

well it's probably due to the incessant spamming of ads. I am not paying google one f'g nickel.

I'm still using uBlock with Chrome too without any problems.

IIRC, they're either planning to, or have already, reduce the capabilities of ad-blockers by enforcing "manifest v3".
From what I've read, that means the ad-blocking extension needs to declare all domains it plans to block in advance; it can't use user-specified rules or dynamically-updated lists to decide which domains should be blocked.
It seems like only AdBlock Plus are in favour of the change, and they have a financial relationship with Google.
Firefox and Chrome are squaring off over ad blocker extensions - The Verge[^]

That's ridiculous - like having to specify which viruses a scanner is allowed to detect at installation.
