Yes, Tweetdeck is great - except development's been stopped on it now with
Twitter's recent blocking of APIs. But Mastodon doesn't have ads ...

I don't see much discussion of the Brave browser - it's a privacy-focused
alternative to Chrome that blocks online ads and website trackers by default.
It keeps a running total, and since yesterday morning the one I've got open
has blocked 572,502 trackers and ads.

Regards, Kate
