Was getting really annoyed with Edge and Firefox so I installed this Brave Browser to play with. It is Chromium based but it isn't as resource hungry as Google Chrome. It is easy to set up and use, and it is one of the best browser I have used for blocking ads. It will notify for ads that want to run but I just say no. I am running this on my W10 Pro Insider Preview Evaluation copy, Build 18898, hope MS will not kick it out for my next build install.

"Was getting really annoyed with Edge and Firefox ..."
What about Waterfox? I also switched from Firefox some time ago, Mindblower!

Hi Mindblower
I tried Waterfox. This Brave Browser is really good at what it does, which is blocking ads. Thanks for the reply!!!

Call it good or bad but the Brave browser does block ads, and a few more things.

I've used both Brave and Vivaldi and like the way they both handled things.

Using Brave is a totally different browsing experience, compared to MS Edge. I have it installed for the default browser on three of my PC's.
