So over time, more and more websites are not loading because of Apple Private Relay on Safari, forcing me to open more and more website on Chrome ...

 

Can anyone comment whether Apple Private Relay is useful / works /  don't bother ?

 

Thanks

I would think it’s the same symptoms as VPN service use, they block known IPs due to abuse or other reasons like wanting to track users.

I think most companies consider avoiding being tracked and advertised at to be "abuse".
