    Fyi you don’t need two adblockers on the same browser. They use the same lists anyways, you’re using double the resources and improving load times for no real benefit

      Yes, I do agree.

      However, I find that the element blocker in UBO is better than AdGuard, and it gives more control over blocking things like remote fonts. Since I run AdGuard system-wide, I just leave it on for the entire browser.

      Adguard does create issues where certain sites simply will not work, so I have to disable Adguard, and I’ll leave UBO on to block any ads or trackers that get through as a result.

      It works for me. 😂👍

        Understood. It’s fine to not follow the “best practices” if our use case requires otherwise. The important thing is to be aware of it!

          It is a good reminder, though. I’m going to have to reevaluate some of my add-ons and settings. I prefer things to be minimalist, and perhaps I really am overlapping features unnecessarily.
