Curious what the general opinion is of AdGuard? I have tried it through SetApp but it seems fishy for some reason.

- nate_meurer 6y agoIt's the best ad blocker I've found for mobile devices. It's the first thing I install on any new device, and I refuse to browse on a device without it. Browsing is a completely different experience with it: clean, fast, and my battery doesn't get trashed. AdGuard's UI tells me it has saved half a GB of mobile data and blocked twelve thousand ads since November 2020. I'm a pretty light browser. Interesting thing: If turn AdGuard off while browsing, my phone gets hot. Website loading slows to a frustrating degree. My mobile devices consist entirely of Motorola Moto phones and Samsung tablets and chromebooks. All android of course. I use uBlock Origin on my PCs. I've used adblockers for so long and so consistently, viewing the internet without one is a really jarring experience. I can't believe how obnoxious and instrusive ads are, and how much they slow page loading.
