  • I got stoned enough to forget my age a few months ago… not like for a moment… I consciously focused on it for 15 minutes, couldn’t figure it out, kept pondering the rest of the night and couldn’t remember until the next morning…

    I am old enough to occasionally forget my age, not to literally not be able to recall it… so I can empathize if bro is just waaay too stoned to comprehend the concept of a bra haha

    Google is in the process of undermining the effectiveness of uBlock Origin and other adblockers on Chrome and other Chromium browsers. I believe that change comes into effect this year.

    But even before those changes were announced, uBlock Origin’s creator and main dev has stated that uBO is most capable on Firefox.

    Pihole is a great project, but it is objectively less capable than uBlock Origin.

    That is not a criticism of the software. It is just a fundamental fact that DNS based adblockers are less powerful, and less granular/precise than Browser based adblockers.

    They do work well in combination though (the DNS level adblockers gives you moderately effective network wide blocking, and uBlock Origin gives you exceptional blocking but is limited to the browser.


  • There are only *two must have extensions in Firefox:

    1. uBlock Origin
    2. Your password manager’s browser extension

    Beyond that it’s all optional. Most things I used to use extensions to accomplish are now possible to accomplish using Firefox’s built in settings or using uBlock Origin.

    There are a few other extensions I use that I consider useful but optional:

    1. Dark Reader
    2. Facebook Container
    3. Libredirect
