ad blocker

Post by NonoFirefox »

Hello... I'm using windows 10 latest 64 pro version and I just downloaded Firefox. I'm curious which ad blocker works best with this browser? Thanks

What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

AdGuard for me for years.
Do, or do not. There is no try.

+1 for Ublock Origin.

Works just fine & auto updates the defs.

AdblockPlus works for me.

I think they all work much the same so it's personal preference as to which one you chose.

I was using both AdGuard and AdblockPlus for years but now I will try Ublock and see how it will go, thanks

NoScript is also good.

I used ABP for a while but 5 or so years ago I moved to UBO. I also have Privacy Badger, Decentraleyes, and HTTPS everywhere.

uBlock Origin is a good solution. Privacy Possum might be considered in order to have more privacy.
Noscript Security Suite and ScriptSafe are good solutions, but they are not just ad blockers.
That's all my dear folks ... Yours faithfully and sincerely ...
