What's actually the difference between various "adblockers" or content blockers? I tried uBO, adblock plus and brave adblock and they all score high on various tests
AdBlock Plus has a default that allows through advertisers that pay them a certain amount. I don't think many do because when I've tested it I've only rarely seen ads, and they might have just snuck through the normal way.
More egregiously they used to allow Google's text-only ads, because they're "not intrusive", but it does also bring in Google's tracking pixel, which kills the privacy filter.

Google ads definitely went through with the acceptable ads enabled and this stopped when disabled.
Interestingly, the ads appeared to be less intrusive - for example they were never animated.

uBlock Origin is generally at the forefront of adblocker development. For 99% of websites the normal ABP filtering works just as good.
If you use medium mode you should pair it with LocalCDN. It will automatically unbreak all the CDNs it supports. You just need to generate the ruleset and import it into uBlock. If you are worried about the few KB in memory you can even delete LocalCDN afterwards. Recommendation: Disable the blocking of Google fonts, it makes some websites look ugly.
Stop acting like you ever used it. We know you're a paid shill, you already failed, don't put more work into it than what's nessessary, your pay isn't worth the effort and i doubt you'll ever get a raise from them.
I use hard mode.
nah, ublock normal + noscript
ubo can disable js
i disable 3rd party scripts and iframes by default
only have to noop a cdn sometimes
NoScript is utter garbage.
Brainlets complain about having options and they remove options for the rest of us.
I just have JavaScript disabled by default and enable it on sites that break (my allow list is huge and growing)

Also add this: * cloudfront.net * noop
Many websites use Amazon web services to host their files. They would be on random123.cloudfront.net and you would need to whitelist on every website.
