Hi,

is there a decent adblocker for Safari like uBlock Origin for Firefox? Most adblockers in the store seem a bit scummy somehow and I’m not sure if I can trust them.

    I use AdGuard.

    There’s lifetime family plan (for more devices) to be had on stack social almost as a permanent fixture. You can occasionally stack it with extra coupons.

      I have used 1Blocker for years and have been relatively content. I may be grandfathered into a lower price of like $5/yr, though. So I’m not sure about the cost being worth it for a newcomer who can’t get a deal like that.

    *puts on his flame retardant suit

    For android or pc, it’s Firefox and ublock origin all day long.

    For iOS it’s trickier. Generally the ad blockers don’t work like you expect, and many aren’t free.

    But I have found a solution that’s worked for years, but people are going to flame me.

    Brave browser for iOS. It just works. Even for YouTube videos. You hear how they are a shady company-they are probably selling my firstborn son right from under my nose. But I’ll be damned if I’ve ever seen an ad come through.

    1Blocker has been the best for me, as it works with all of the Apple devices and syncs across them. Another option is to enable reader mode by default on all websites, so instead of getting the site with all of the ads, you’ll get a reader view without the ads and distractions.

    Personally quite satisfied with Firefox Focus (or whatever it’s called in English, in German it’s Firefox Klar)
