minus-squareAzzu@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·1 year agoWhich websites exactly do you still see ads on with ublock and not with Brave? Because I’ve not seen any ads in years with ublock.
minus-squareMakeshift@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoI don’t know why you’re getting ads… I run Firefox + uBlock just fine. But I also run NoScript and AdBlockPlus. Maybe try those? (Yes I know NoScript with uBlock is pretty redundant. Doesn’t really bother me to allow scripts on both to unbreak things. I like the double lock.)
