Hi, I was wondering, is it useful to use multiple adblockers in a row?
I don’t mean 4 or five 5 browser extensions more like a chain of adblockers, one on every passing network point.
Adblock DNS -> Pi-Hole -> Linux System with hBlock -> Browser with uBlock Origin
I have only a 10 Mbit Internet connection, so I fear that this would slowdown pageloads to much. On the other hand there are filterlists that uBlock can use where as Pi-Hole can’t.
So what combination does make sense (is efficient in every aspect) and what do you use?
One problem is… when you want to allow a blocked domain. It can be time consuming and confusing trying to track down which one of those things is actually stopping you.
How to Geek basically wants to whitelist the internet in order to get to their bloody site. Which is a shame as I like their content.
True. I recommend a DNS based adblocker like Pi-hole and an extra adblocker like uBO in your browser. If you can’t access a website you’ll immediately know who is the culprit blocking the site you’re trying to access.
