I have a subscription to The Times and have been happily reading it in
Firefox for a number of years with ad blockers on. In the last couple of
months a problem has arisen where, with ad blockers on, a lot of
photographs are shown at very low resolution and the readers comments
are turned off. If I switch off the ad blockers the problem goes away,
service as normal.
I have emailed The Times who say the problem is not with them. The
problem is there with Firefox and Palemoon, but all works OK with
Vivaldi so it looks as if it is a Firefox based problem. Duck duck go
doesn't lead anywhere useful.
I do not like Vivaldi, or any other Chrome based browser for that
matter. My problem with them is that when you open a link into a new
tab, it does not switch to that tab. Why would you open in a new tab and
not want to view it? In Firefox you can choose which it does but not in
Chrome based browsers. You can open a link while pressing control shift
but this opens a new instance of the browser, not really the same as
pressing the centre wheel of the mouse and being there in your new tab.
Any suggestions on either problem please?
