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 a fan of a multi-tiered approach.

    For system wide, I update/replace my etc/hosts file with the one generated here. The advantage is that this blocks ads system wide—not just in Safari. They simply cannot load at all on your computer. It’s free, but updates have to be preformed manually.

    Next, VPNs often add an additional layer of protection. Apple offers one with iCloud subscriptions, but I’m also fond of Lockdown

    And then finally for an actual Safari extension, I use 1Blocker, which I guess actually answers your question.
