ABP has several privacy lists that is managed publicly so I don't see the need for these untrusted and unproven extensions.


That's a pretty cheap shot:

loading speed is still too slow for daily use really.


Have you done your part to improve that by contributing a relay?


Using tor on a daily basis depend on how people surf the web.

If you are one of those people who click on news article all day long, maybe read comments, then the added latency do not really do anything. You go to HN, open in new tabs all the interesting articles you want to read. By the time you reach the end of HN front page, the first page is loaded.
