Purist attitude of developer towards performance (resulting in the fastest, leanest adBlock extension avialable)ģ. Purist attitude of developer towards security and privacy (resulting in more hard core privacy and security options)Ģ. uBlockOrigin (the best choice for PC-enthousiasts, hardcore adblockers, geeks and tweakers)ġ. Most of their development team resides in Russia, for some people this is a deal breaker, others don't really care (AG dared to post with #NoToWar tag)Ģ. Less focus on performance (good is enough, AG usually scores top 3 of fastest adblockers), so less attractive for geeksģ. Allows to embed and import scriptlets in the filters (which could be a security risk)Ģ. Although disliked by purists, this is a valued option for online shoppers (my wife values AG over uBO for this reason) to be informed about promotions on website they visit to buy something.ġ.
Has an option to use optimized filters (reducing overhead)ħ. Is a company with paid subscription model and over 120 employees and often offers innovations first (because of their resources and manpower).Ħ. Includes Stealth option (sets expiration date of cookies, which is only a bonus for people using Chrome - other mainstream browsers offer a option to delete all at browser close)ĥ. Includes Google Safe browsing option which is only a bonus for people using Edge Browsing - Chrome and Firefox use this option, so for these mainstream browser it is uselessĤ. Has the easiest to use logger (to add rules or create exceptions)ģ. Has the most advanced element blocker/option to block ads manually using AG's 'block an ad' wizzardĢ. Offers the best filter AdBlock format compatibility (digests its own, uBO filter format and ABP format)ġ. Maintains its own filters, reducing the chance of website breakageģ. Is really set and forget (even adds language filters automatically)Ģ. AdGuard (agree with it is the most user friendly option and the best choice for average and set and forget PC type of user)ġ. Regarding the MV3 versions: uBO is faster, AG is way more mature with also more user configurable options.ġ.
I like the two extensions and usually switch from one to the other.
