I have this setup for like a year now, and I didn’t really encounter any problems as far as I know. (or did I?) However, I just thought I would ask about it because I’ve been experiencing YouTube slowdowns recently via the mobile website (like video plays and video stops, and like my data won’t exceed 500k/s usage most of the time), even though I never experience any of this in YouTube Revanced Extended.
I just enabled every filter that looked good in the Brave settings and added every starred/recommended list in yokkofing’s filter list. (I used this list because it was heavily recommended)
I also have the Brave configurations set up with the PrivacyGuides’s recommended configuration, and I’m also using Mullvad’s DNS server (the base version; see all versions) both in my browser and in my Android device via the Private DNS feature.
So, is it overkill/redundant? If yes, what should I remove?

No you can never block too much ad.
That’s also what I thought when I set it up.
