Hey everyone, I’ve recently gone back to using Safari as my main browser and I really like it, with the exception of being a little lost when it comes to the options for adblock extensions. I have Wipr, but I don’t love the lack of customization. The two I see mentioned most are Adguard and 1Blocker. If I were to pay for one premium service, which would you recommend? Edit: Should’ve mentioned that I’m speaking about macOS as opposed to iOS!
I’m using Wipr, haven’t had any issues with it really. The only downside is it can’t block YouTube ads, but I think that’s a limitation of all Safari content blockers.
I also use Firefox with uBlock Origin for the sites Safari can’t handle.
What is it exactly that you want to customise?
Being able to pick and choose which filters are on/off, or being able to add custom rules are a couple that come to mind. I do have Firefox with uBlock as well, and maybe this is naive, but I’d like to just have 1 browser that can handle everything as opposed to having to pick and choose. Firefox has been that 1 browser for me for a long time, but I really love the little things about Safari like entering my two factor codes for me. Ultimately doing all this for fun though, and if it doesn’t work out I know I can fall back on Firefox + uBlock.
I never had the urge to modify my uBlock (well, AdNauseam) filters after the initial setup and I’ve never needed to adjust Wipr. You can turn off content blockers (=Wipr) for complete websites where you want the author to get money for ad impressions.
