If anyone prefers Adblock Plus over µBlock but wants to get rid of the 'kosher' ads as you say, Adblock Edge is a fork that does just that.

Oh. Well, their official endorsement of uBlock is enough for me to switch. ABE has served me well over the past couple of years, though.


ABE has been great and even after their controversial whitelist was added it was always very simple to disable. But ABE never innovated or focused on performance and so now uBlock (Origin) is all you should consider running.


You mean AdBlock Plus' controversial whitelist.

AdBlock Edge was a fork to precisely avoid this whitelist.


Correct, I had them mixed up.
