I'm also curious about this. A couple years back, I switched from 'AdBlock Plus' to 'uBlock Origin' and the difference was night and day (it blocked SO many more ads).
I've been out of the game for awhile, so I'm wondering what beats uBlock nowadays... Any recommendations?
- tssenek 7y agoHardly anyone. Still going strong. The first add-on I'd recommend.
- enz 7y agouBlock Origin is still in the game!
- wtallis 7y agoWhat you noticed was not really a meaningful difference between the two extensions, but just a difference in the default ruleset subscriptions—which you can manage independently.
- gorhill 7y ago> not really a meaningful difference between the two extensions That is incorrect. uBlock Origin has filter syntax not found in ABP[1], so there will be a meaningful difference when it comes to what is blocked or not, and also there is a difference due to policy[2]. * * * [1] https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax [2] https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/j5zk8y/why-your-ad-blocker-doesnt-block-those-please-turn-off-your-ad-blocker-popups https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/j5zk8y/why-your-ad-blocke...
