Serious question: what is the best add blocker right now? I've been using ublock origin, but it doesn't seem to be working that well these days.
uBlock-Origin on Firefox.
Counterpoint... Invidious...
I throw all my links into piped if I'm on desktop, no need to have an additional sponsorblock or RYD extension that way
ublock origin by far. Just refresh the filter list every now and then.
To be absolutely sure no one gets this wrong - uBlock Origin is what you want. Not just uBlock.
To be even absolutelier sure no one gets this wrong - use uBlock Origin on Firefox (or one of it's forked versions) because every other Browser runs chromium under it's hood which heavily restricts ad blocking abilities
Apparently you need to clear the plugin's cache semi-regularly.
As sometimes it won't update itself as fast.
That makes sense. Thanks for the advice!
Vinegar + SponsorBlock on iOS/iPadOS/MacOS.
thank you for recommending vinegar, it is incredible
