Hi,

is there a decent adblocker for Safari like uBlock Origin for Firefox? Most adblockers in the store seem a bit scummy somehow and I’m not sure if I can trust them.

I use AdGuard.

There’s lifetime family plan (for more devices) to be had on stack social almost as a permanent fixture. You can occasionally stack it with extra coupons.

I find Wiper to be really effective. There is a one of payment though think it’s only around £5

I use nextdns to adblock my entire connection since it lets you configure multiple sources of filters like ublock but on the dns level.

NextDNS is great and well worth the price imo. I use this for DNS level ad and telemetry blocking on my LAN and across all of my mobile devices. Having DNS over HTTPS is nice too, I’ve got 100% of my DNS requests going to nextDNS via HTTPS.

DNS-based ad blocking is the way to go. Apps load tons of telemetry, and you can sprinkle in malware protection too. I prefer the DIY approach of Unbound + a ton of blocklists, but the solution is essentially the same.

I have used 1Blocker for years and have been relatively content. I may be grandfathered into a lower price of like $5/yr, though. So I’m not sure about the cost being worth it for a newcomer who can’t get a deal like that.
