Get Firefox and uBlock. You'll be laughing.

You sure? I'm using ublock origins now and it's mad at me. Someone put some code for filters in here the other day and I applied those but they didn't help.

@bull @halibutherring what are you trying to block? YouTube ads? AFAIK they are served from the same CDN as YouTube videos are served from and it's next to impossible blocking them.

I run a PiHole setup at home and never been able to remove the ads completely.

I've also tried NextDNS: https://nextdns.io/ but again, minor improvements
