Browser Setup Guide

Browser Setup: Block Adverts & Cookie Popups, Save Bookmarks, Use a Password Manager

Fed up with ads everywhere and cookie popups on every website? This video shows you four quick browser tweaks that'll save you loads of time. I'll walk you through installing Ublock Origin to block ads (makes sites load way faster, especially on older computers), and "I Still Don't Care About Cookies" to automatically dismiss those annoying GDPR banners.

Also covers smart bookmarking tricks like saving login pages directly instead of homepages, and why you should use a password manager like Bitwarden (free and open source). It takes about 10 minutes to set all this up, but it'll save you hours every week. It works best with Firefox, which isn't constantly trying to make your life worse like Chrome does.
