I don't think I can go back to the internet without uBO+uMatrix.
On a related note, why doesn't Chrome for Android have extensions? I get the sense it's because it was more strategic to ban extensions entirely than to allow ad blocking on mobile.
- metalliqaz 8y agoI think you hit the nail on the head.
- 8bitsrule 8y agoCan't remember the site, but uBO reported blocking over 1100 requests when I landed there the other day. I can't imagine browsing without it.
- twoheadedboy 8y agoI think a lot of requests get repeated once they fail. So in reality it's a lot less. Don't quote me on that though.
- dzader 8y agoserious question - what sites are you visiting that you run into these issues? I use chrome without any adblock and have for as long as chrome has been around. I have NEVER once ran into this situation.
- ohyeshedid 8y agoYou probably run into hourly since you don't use adblocking, you just don't see it because trackers/analytics engines aren't usually visible.
- lozenge 8y ago(I hope) it was just a poorly written JS that retries on failure
- davidgerard 8y agouBlock Origin is why I use Firefox on Android.
