I've been informed that adblock plus sort of sucks now. If you're looking for one, go for UBlock Origin.

This reminds me to donate to uBlock Origin. The dev does not accept donations though. I can't imagine a fay without uBlock Origin.

Yeah I wish the dev accepted donations. Ublock makes my life so much better and I have a hard time being online without it. That's something I'd gladly donate to. You can donate to the maintainers of the block-lists though

Fair play to the dev. At least they are totally upfront so you know you can actually trust the work as being unbiased.

And his reputation is solid. He passed on the original uBlock and its maintainer sold out so he went back and made uBlock Origin.

Nice of him to mention uBlock Origin is nothing without the maintainers of the block lists it depends on and somewhere else mentions people should donate to those instead. Nice to see some parts of the Internet are resisting the enshitification, or, in this case, actively fighting it.
