I'm pretty sure I wouldn't use the WWW, or would severely cut back on the amount of use, if I had to suffer advertising to do so.

Other browsers have pretty good ad blockers. I genuinely don't know if I would be able to tell the difference between uBlock Origin on Firefox and uBlock Origin Lite on Chrome.

I can tell the difference and I can't stand it tbh

It's the custom filters. For example with origin you can hide the annoying "login with google" but you can't with lite.

Seems pretty logical to me, given the fact that it's the only major browser not built on the engine that banned the underlying API ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They can take uBlock from my cold dead hands.
