I do, in fact, I am certain of it. For Google you are the product!
Until I do go to Linux feel the Linux Chrome Operating system will

Why don't you just try to boot your PC with a live Linux Mint (or any
other) iso (on a DVD or USB) to try it out before you decide. That way
your existing OS remains fully untouched and you still you get a good
idea what you let yourself into before committing to a full install.
I simply find the Chrome Browser best and offers protection where
Firefox doesn't.
Absolutely wrong. In any case, in every browser in existence today you
have to fiddle quite a bit with the settings to override nasties in the >defaults. In Chrome some stuff just can not be disabled, well, not
unless you use Brave, a chrome based browser!
The max protection today you'll only get from Mullvad (also a chrome
based browser (ignoring for now the TorBrowser option) but it does
break some of the websites...that is the price you have to pay for that >level of protection.
These browser seem ok for a while then act up, Firefox has let me down
badly went to Opera suddenly that became strange so dumped it as well.
Brave is a better chrome based browsers with already built in ad blocker >that actually works. (Bye-bye ads on YouTube for good).
I use several different browsers, each one is dedicated to certain tasks >which is the best way towards protecting one's privacy. Chrome OS is on
its way out as Google is intending to drop support for it.
I prefer a lot more stable and better supported OSs like any of the >Debian-stable release (upstream development) based one, that includes
Mint too. Although, you don't get the very latest bells and whistles but
you get stability, which is paramount in my opinion and on tops they
tend to work well with older PCs and laptops.
But after all, it is your personal choice and Linux gives you the
freedom to do whatever you like.

You have left out the actually most important questions like which
caves will be visited,
What I said still stands.
Sure, just keep on digging yourself deeper and deeper, They must be
already waiting for you with open arm in Siberia...again!
Siberia?? Did you fail Geography, Ordog??
As I kid, I was always told if I kept digging, I'd end up in China! (I
don't know if the was Mainland China or the other bit.)
I wouldn't know where exactly you could end up if you kept on digging,
as I have never tried!-a :-P
My guess would definitely be a location somewhere to the north-west of China, but hey I could be wrong. I am just looking at my lovely
illuminated desktop globus but it is much to nice to ram a rod through
it and ruin it for good, just to make a point!

pre-recorded tapes you don't see AD's.
I haven't done that for quite literallyyears now
But if you watch LIVE TV streaming of course you see the AD's.
I don't see any ads at all when doing that except with the SBS
All the commercial channels are ad free when
you use "uBlock Origin Lite" on chrome

Never have a problem with Opera and I use it multiple times a day
for the BBC news feed. I did that initially for the free vpn I used
only for the BBC news feed so you don't see the ads but then
that stopped with them saying it would return but hasnt for years
Don't use it much at all for browsing, just the BBC news feed
so I likely don't notice that it isn't being updated anymore
I use SeaMonkey Suite (Browser, Mail, News and IRC) as my "Go To" for
Internet but its Browser isn't keeping up with current developments
so, more and more, I'm having to use Firefox for some sites.
Yeah, that would be a real nuisance
I mostly browse on the phone for the better visibility,
and have enough trouble with badly designed web
sites like when activating with onepass mobile which
is my MVNO now for the best price of $12.x per month
paid a year in advance
Just started using FF for VPN stuff with Youtube. You live, You learn!!
I only use a vpn to get rid of the ads on the BBC news feeds
so need a free one. I should really get one so I can watch
the BBC streams but haven't got around to that and would
likely go for private internat access if it does that well

You have left out the actually most important questions like which
caves will be visited,
What I said still stands.
Sure, just keep on digging yourself deeper and deeper, They must be >>>>> already waiting for you with open arm in Siberia...again!
Siberia?? Did you fail Geography, Ordog??
As I kid, I was always told if I kept digging, I'd end up in China!
(I don't know if the was Mainland China or the other bit.)
I wouldn't know where exactly you could end up if you kept on
digging, as I have never tried!-a :-P
My guess would definitely be a location somewhere to the north-west
of China, but hey I could be wrong. I am just looking at my lovely
illuminated desktop globus but it is much to nice to ram a rod
through it and ruin it for good, just to make a point!
:-P
Just used Google Maps. If I dug from Melbourne (-37 deg 48 min 51 sec
South, 144 deg 57 min 47 sec East) straight through the center of the
Earth, I'd end up out in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean (52 deg 11
min 09 sec North, 35 deg 02 min 13 sec West) about level with London.
Thanks for that important info, Daniel. Just what I have always wanted
to know. ;-)
Is that method cheaper than a non-stop flight Qantas getting to London???
Of course, it would require a lot of muscle power as well as good
swimming skills to make the final miles (alternatively for Petz a lot of GoonBag juice fairy magic when he decide to visit his UK idol, Farage).
:-P

Not having troubles with Chrome Browser yet either
Good Browser Extentions like

Yeah, I use chrome for streaming FTATV
with that to kill the ads very effectively
Doesn't work for SBS and ABC doesnt
work on Win7 so I use Win11 for that
Sorry! How does "uBlock Origin Lite" kill the ads very effectively on
FTATV?? What is displayed on your screen whilst the ads are 'on'??
Nothing, its like there aren't any ads at all
So just blank screen, then. O.K.
it would be better if you just skipped over the ads, saving time ....
but, I guess, on Live-T.V. that would be just a little bit impossible!

How many Calls?
What company??
I'm currently on about $40 Pay-as-you-Go with AldiMobile and that gets--- Synchronet 3.22a-Linux NewsLink 1.2

Firefox, now-a-days, has a VPN function inbuilt .... so I can watch

As I had friends about did not express it.
Always said to myself why the *F* have I came here.
Prefer traveling around Sydney, overseas travel overrated.
