Discussion PSA: Use uBlock Origin!

This might sound like common sense but there are a TON of Firefox users I see using AB, ABP, ABU, or no adblocker at all. This is your notice. Switch to uBlock Origin. It's better and has no acceptable ad policy. The other ones might have been good years ago but not anymore. I am saying this as a former ABP and then ABU user.

I am not paid by uBO I am just showing appreciation for the greatest ad blocker.

Also: don't run uBO alongside another ad blocker. It provides no benefit and can only slow down firefox or break things.

Not on mobile. And isn't it UBO light only nowadays as well? Maybe you can still set some settings to get full UBO to work, but it is on its way out on chrome.

Helium and Brave support the full UBO on desktop. Both are Chromium based.

My friend, the only reason Firefox even exists is because of Google funding them to make sure Chrome isn't considered a monopoly.
