Addblock Extension and Login support for new overlay browser

[PM Static]

Adding a browser to the overlay that can be pinned is amazing

Then here I am Playing csgo wile watching a video then a valorant add comes on... ):
--then I try to download addblock, okay that dont work. then I try to log into my youtube acc, dam wow that dont work either.
So when you cant have addblock on top of the fact that you can't log into your personal youtube acc.
you get some dam dirty unfiltered raw! ads :EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!

If you want people to take the browser seriously you need addblock extension support.
and log in support for places like youtube ext.

steam's browser isn't 100% chromium so i highly doubt the embedded framework would even support addons

idc much cuz i just use my installed browser, i always disable the overlay and used to have the -no-browser option before they removed it
it would be nice to have an ad blocker doe, browsing gets rlly fast when u block all the trackers and dumb bloat modern websites force on you and at least i'd like to have a nicer experience if i'm forced to use steam's browser

Yeah I agree, but the browser has gotten a lot more relevant because it can be pinned onto your games.

use a hosts file to block adds, the following is a straight forward windows based hosts file manager https://github.com/ScriptTiger/Unified-Hosts-AutoUpdate .

It would be nice to be able to use default browser as steam browser.

Google's security policy, since years ago.

I'm happy that there is a solution for the Individual, but as for the collective this Is still a basic necessity that should be addressed.
Steam Is already very browser based So it should not be too hard for them to add these features.

---Having big limitations on a browser is just plain bad.
Its also a problem because If the browser is like this when the new update comes out, a lot of people will have horrible first impressions and wright the browser off as something they will never use. But yeah you can pin it to games so they will use anyway all the wile complaining that it dose not have login and ad block support.
