I neither want nor need DRM to work.

I'd rather have the ability of ad-blocking and similar extensions to work on a deeper level, instead of crippling them, like on chromium-based browsers.

What about mono-culture and the risk there of?

edit: Availability of working DRM is what it all boils down to.

I haven't kept up to date. Is Chromium hostile towards ad blocking?

It started with this, but applies to other extensions also:
