Ad-blockers


Recommended Posts

I use Brave Browser as well as Mozilla & Chrome. I like Brave but the Ad-blockers tend to block too much. I cannot remove the Ad-Blocker for some sites including my own forum at times, so I have to use an alternate browser. What are some benefits to using Ad-Blockers? How do people deal with it when they cannot access certain websites or forums?

I like were Firefox sits for the most part.  It blocks very invasive items and lets minor stuff past.  I really don't mind banner ads and such, but popups and those crazy things that just fill the website page drive me insane. 

 

Otherwise I don't use any third party ad blockers as they do tend to block things that are needed at times.  Plus if a site is all ads, I just use a different site anymore.

I block pop up ads, but I don't block the other ads. I guess it's because I go to a lot of forums and know that some of the owners are just trying to make some money, so hey, here's a few hits and you're welcome  😄  Also on YouTube, I might sit through some ads to help out the creator of the video, unless it's ruining the middle of the song I was listening to and then I get mad. I've thought about getting some ad blocker and then forget about it because for the sites I visit, it's not really too bad to see the ads.

I have the same experience with using Brave browser and that's why I removed it as my default browser. I'm now using Google chrome as my default browser and I might switch to Microsoft Edge browser as my default soon.
