What’s your preferred adblocker?

[–] notabot@piefed.social 36 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Ublock origin does a pretty solid job, I'm always mildly horrified when I have to use a browser without it. Is that really what other people see when they browse the web?

[–] masta_chief@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yes. Average people don't know what an adblocker is or even that there are different browsers. Let alone know how to install an extension. We're fucked

NextDNS + uBlock

This is basically the definition of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I don't understand how this serves the purpose of ad blocking.

Ads won't load if browser literally can't load em.

Dillo is not a daily driver...but it is occasionally fun to pilot. Breaks on a lot of sites tho...but god damn is it a nice little browser.

uBlock Origin is the gold standard, but you need something that supports the full version. Plain Chrome (and most forks) are not good enough.

Firefox, Helium, and/or Orion would be my top picks.
