Use Firefox and won't have to deal with this BS at all. Or even preferably LibreWolf (It's basically Firefox on steroids, it removes all the junk and makes significant privacy improvements compared to stock Firefox. LibreWolf also comes with uBlock Origin pre-installed)

Free yourself as well as your browser and stop supporting Google's monopoly!

Btw: If you're also looking for a better mobile browser, Mull on Android is great, it's hardened Firefox, pretty similar to LibreWolf.

I tried to use LibreWolf but Twitch wasn’t working. It would tell me I had an unsupported browser. Is there a solution to that? I did try to make it so my browser was recognized as Chrome but it didn’t solve the issue.

Try following steps:

  • Go to the settings
  • Select the LibreWolf page in the settings
  • Under 'Fingerprinting' uncheck 'Enable ResistFingerprinting'

That should fix it.
