I would suggest using the Brave Browser:

To answer your question specifically, yes clear the browser as much as you like.
 
Is it more secure? anyhow, I'll go to download Brave browser now. Thx
 
I imported my bookmark from Chrome but I didn't see any short icons on the browser. Can anybody help me?

I this switch over too Brave Browser for YouTube watching only and it has been grate I still used safari for all my main other stuff but Brave Browser is is the 1st one has not gave me any issue with ads I have tried this about ever free ad block on the Mac app store and they have all gave me ads or or issues


and its like one one Adblock would give me media play issue like in photo 1

and in photo 2 the Adblock would not block ads in YouTube when you 1st start up a YouTube video in fact YouTube has found a way to buy pass your Adblock setting buy posting ads at 1st video the ads fitters needs fixing or some in

in photo 2 I noted the issue started a few days ago

its like all the Adblock on the Mac App Store are broken


any ways the Brave Browser has fix all of my issue and its been grate I can all so watch 4k video some in that safari can't do

@surfbug move your bookmarks from out of the Imported from Chrome subfolder and into the top-level Bookmarks folder.. I believe you can mark them all just as you would in Finder by CMD+A shortcut after having highlighted your first bookmark

No, it is less secure than Chrome. Now, the latest version of Brave is based on Chromium 81.0.4044.138, while the latest version of Chrome is based on 83.0.4103.97. So, it might be missing important security patches.
