Does she know you can have more than one browser running simultaneously?
There's no reason you can't both have a browser loaded on the same computer. Unless your computer is old enough and your browsers are enough of a resource hog that they have trouble running, but these days that would be pretty rare. It's usually not a browser that causes trouble, it'd be a game or something else like that.

My dad made me download Brave on my tablet because it gives no ads? Or something? I haven't used it much because I'm just so used to Chrome.

No, my mom doesn't have a lot of experience with computers and doesn't really want to be taught because she feels like she can figure it out on her own so I let her, lol. I usually use firefox myself, but I can't download it onto her PC without her permission.
I also wouldn't need to use her computer if I hadn't spilt paint water all over my laptop. >_<

Chrome for pc. I have contemplated switching browsers after the Youtube anti adblock debacle. But since it's fixed and I have no issue with having adblocks over youtube anymore, I'm staying.
Brave for mobile. I have stopped using Free Adblocker Browser since its VPN isn't free anymore. Brave doesn't include free VPN too but it's more stable overall.
How did you get the adblock to work on YouTube again? I'm still suffering the ads.

I have 3 adblock/anti-popup extensions installed on chrome:
Adblock Plus
Poper Blocker
Popup Blocker (strict)
It's probably the popup blockers but I'm not sure. Youtube did detect them months ago but I guess too many people jumped ship to firefox so they stopped being too strict lol.
The popup blocker is pretty strict though so remember to disable them when needed - like entering banking sites etc
