I found I was only able to register, and login, after I used Firefox (and verified my email to login). Glad I checked here to see it was more Chrome related.

More people finding out every day that big tech is your enemy and should be treated as such.
In the next 6 to 12 months Google is removing most adblock functionality - switch to Firefox (also Firefox mobile is amazing with uBlock origin )
They're not allowing remote connections for security , but you need a lot of 3rd party data to keep track of lists of ever changing malicious websites and ads to block
also Firefox mobile is amazing with uBlock origin
ublock on mobile is a total gamechanger if you have a cheap phone with low performance
Also if you have a fast phone but hate intrusive ads!
I use both Firefox and Opera (Opera One & Opera GX)
I use Opera is because of its AI, Aria. and I like it. unlike Bing AI ofc......
I actually deleted my google account yesterday. Felt so good. I'm finally free.

and this is not just you using a billion blocklists?
Using all those blocklists is still a whole lot faster than the increased load times from loading ads.
