    Firefox does not block:

    Ads shown on search engine results pages, including Google

    Very cool Firefox

      I’ve been using Orion (Kagi’s browser) on iOS for a while because it has uBO built in. It’s a fine browser (everything is just re-skinned Safari after all) and the ad blocking works as you’d expect.

      It also supports installing Firefox addons, but I’ve found that to be buggy.

        I’m kind of surprised that when it comes to iOS, Firefox is the last browser to introduce ad-blocking.

        An independent developer even made a Gecko-based browser that runs in iOS and (once installed) has full uBlock Origin support without any hacks

    Yay. Can’t wait to switch back from Brave to Firefox.

Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don’t be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don’t be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don’t post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don’t post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you’re concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don’t accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you’ve gotten yours.
