> Firefox with uBlock Origin on Linux
Same setup and same experience. I've recently joined another company which only provided chrome with no extensions by default. I know the web is filled with ads but I'm shocked again and again when I get a glimpse into what it's like without an adblocker.
- cwnyth 2mo agoThere are dozens of us. Maybe one day people will realize how much better Firefox is now and how nicer the web can be with no ads.
- anonymousiam 2mo agoIt's not just a better user experience. It also addresses the security issues. Blocking ads will also prevent malware scripts, unscrupulous information collection, and deceptive virus infection messages. I've got friends who've been infected because they believed the popup that told them their computer had a virus, and they needed to click the link to remove it.
- endless_smash 2mo agoBlocking ads is recommended by CISA. It should really be more mainstream. Some demographics are heavy ad blockers, 90%+.
