I read about Google already making it deliberately more difficult for addons to block under-the-hood trackers; do some ads not slip through uBlock on Chrome already nowadays?
I don’t use uBlock. I use AdBlock. I also have a setting to let non-intrusive ads through, because that has an influence, even if a small one, on making the internet more tolerable for everyone else.
Before I turned that on, there were always some ads that slipped through on occasion. No biggie, there’s a manual block button. No adblocker is perfect.
I like Firefox for Android. It has an extension to play YouTube videos in the background, and you can block ads using uBlock Origin. It also blocks ads on the mobile Twitter website, so I can avoid using those two shitty apps thanks to FF for Android.
I switched from bromite to firefox(with exactly those addons you mentioned activated) years ago because it just adblocks perfectly while bromitr had issues multiple times that were fixed only through updating the app.
I don’t know why it never occurred to me, while scrolling through ad-choked recipe blogs on my phone, that Firefox might have an ad block extension on mobile.
I just opened a post for Earl Grey cookies and I can actually read the damn recipe. You just changed my life. If I ever had kids I would name my firstborn after you.
It is slow sometimes but if I put battery restriction on every app and kill the heavier ones when I’m done, battery lasts me half a day easily(more if I don’t do more than check time)
This was posted in my D&D party’s group chat. Lorenzo steps outside to take a call, things are moving but we were still collecting evidence. Ten minutes later, he returns to “Hey, we solved all the murders and are about to enter combat with all the bad guys at once, roll initiative”
What about a fertilized but unhatched duck egg? That’s kinda both a duck and not a duck.
I think you’d consider a roast duck a duck, but what about a duck drumstick? Would you say that’s not a duck? If so, how much of the roast duck needs to be connected for it to be a duck?
