This can be annoying if several tabs were loaded. Version 1.40 of the add-on addressed this way back in 2021 by introducing a new setting to suspend tabs upon launch. This isn't a new problem per se, uBlock Origin has been combating Chrome's ever-evolving shenanigans for a couple of years, particularly when it comes to YouTube ads that played at the browser's startup. Most users would blame it on the extension failing to do its job, while the browser is actually the one causing the issue.

As a result of this, you will see ads on web pages. What happens is, the browser gives preference to load web pages that were open in the previous session, even before add-ons such as uBlock Origin are ready. Unfortunately, it isn't that simple, at least with Chromium browsers, especially since version 110 that was released in February this year.

What you need to know is that the extension needs a few seconds after the browser has been opened, to load its filters, in order to use them to block requests, i.e. It's like this, when you open your browser, you expect it to work perfectly right away, in this case you don't want to see ads on web pages.
