Ensure you have multiple layers of ad blocking. A winning combination blocks first at the DNS level, then at the browser level, and finally at the element level.
AsGuard DNS, uBlock, and ABP.
I virtually never see ads.
Don't bother with ABP. Use AdGuard, uBlock Origin, and Privacy Badger.
Don't use more than one ad blocker extension on the same browser, it can cause conflicts.
Consider PiHole as a whole home network first line of defense.
Yup. Blocks ads on our iPhones, iPads, streaming services, etc. Between that & uBlock Origin on our laptop browsers we hardly ever see ads.
ublock origin and adblock plus do the same thing and can be configured to use the same filter lists.
pick one or the other (tip: choose ubo) for in the browser.
