Yeah I had the same problem. It's the very aggressive built in ad blocker. I discuss the fix here:

I stopped using Firefox when it lost all of my bookmarks, and nuked the backups. I've been using Chrome since at least 2010, and it is so embedded in my daily routine I don't know what I am going to do if they don't back down on this.

I checked out Brave on my spare laptop and it seems okay. I could probably force myself to get used to it if I had to. But it will be a heck of a life change for me. I see that it has its own sync function, but I've been using and have been relying on Chrome/Google sync for so long I'm skeptical and worried.

Use Brave. It's chromium based and looks/feels just like Chrome.
