Because I can't install Adblock in Android Chrome, I won't use Chrome at all. And because I like my bookmarks/history synced between phone and desktop, that means that I won't use Chrome on desktop either.
- Xiol 10y agoI ended up using a hosts-file based solution on my home server to block ads in my household at the network level. Then I connect to my VPN and push all traffic from my mobile through it so ads get blocked when I'm out and about. On the upside, this works in Chrome and in apps, so my mobile experience is ad-free without having to root my device. Bit extreme, I'll admit...
