Not everything that isn't ublock is automatically bad. Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with

No, but if a product fails to do the one thing it was made to do, it’s bad.

Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with

What else does uBlock Origin come with? Like, content filtering, yes, but that’s pretty fundamentally coupled with ad blocking.

Given the implication that uBO is bloated, I’d also love to know what other adblockers you’ve been using that are more performant and/or less resource-intensive than uBO. The benchmarks I’ve seen show uBO performing better than ABP, but those metrics are all several years old at this point.
