    extension design and strong content filters make AdBlock for Firefox a solid choice for people who don’t necessarily despise all ads

    Do these people exist and if so, have they been checked for brainworms?

    The rest is also stupid, ublock origin can and does block trackers, and can be made to block more stuff if you want. It's strictly better in every way than the competition, which lets through more stuff, and/or sells your info. The article would be very short though if they just said that.

      I like Adguardhome better.

      Adaway on rooted Android is pretty amazing and blocks a lot of ads in apps.

      SmartTubeNext for ad free YouTube on TV. And S0undTV for ad free twitch on TV.

      Revanced Manager for ad free YouTube and more on Android phones.

    As well as origin the EFF has some great browser plugins and tools that have held up for over a decade https://www.eff.org/pages/tools

    uBlock Origin + NoScript + Toggle referrer (+ SponsorBlock for YT).

    NoScript can be a pain to manage occasionally but even on pemit-all-by-default mode you can block some of the more ubiquitous insidious trackers like Google and Facebook without impacting your functionality at all.

    DNS blocking with DNS over TLS (DoT) with OpenBSD unwind + disabling javascript

    • userscripts where javascript is required and the site is cancer (youtube, twitch, other corpomedia)
    • disable/compile without DNS over HTTPS (DoH)
      • I'm not sending my DNS requests to cloudflare, and I want my DNS to be system-wide

    always disable DNS prefetch

    works in any browser (system-wide actually), not just in Firefox/Chromium
