Just a two small tips:
  1. Don't use Chrome. It's the browser of an advertisement company (and it behaves like one).
  2. Don't use Ad-block Pro/Plus, whatever. They also have some shady ties and practices.
So what's a better approach?
For 1., use Firefox, Brave, Librewolf, etc. The one you feel comfortable. For 2., use uBlock Origin. Open-source, and the true ad-blocker. I can't even imagine how someone could access the web nowadays without it.
