  Privacy Badger and UBlock Origin don't work well together, and LocalCDN is better than Decentraleyes

    Nah, Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin do work well together.

      You may think that, but no, they don't - and both authors of both apps state so. What's happening is you are not getting any clear errors so you think that's the case, but you're running an inefficient setup without any doubt.

          Wow, I apologize, and very interesting! This is some sort of tech version of mansplaining, I guess, lesson learned! I was certain on the PB github or something there was something saying not to use it with uBlock, and likewise on gorhills github, but maybe it was a mandella effect or something. In any case, thanks for the clarification and humbling.

            Hey, that's such a nice response, I appreciate it. I think the thing on uBO's side is here on https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock : >Do NOT use uBO with any other content blocker. uBO performs as well as or better than most popular blockers. Other blockers can prevent uBO's privacy or anti-blocker-defusing features from working correctly. My perspective: - uBO is good enough by itself - PB is good enough by itself - uBO comes with unique features - PB comes with unique features - While using uBO with PB may indeed cause some problems like anti-blocker-defusing features to break, it doesn't seem like a big deal for most people - uBO alone is good, PB alone is good, uBO + PB is also good

              No worries, and thanks for creating PB and the clarification.
