abp vs uB

uBlock is lighter, but that's only because it hides ads.

One blocks ads, one sells ads.

Figure it out.

abp doesnt do the same?

How about not acting so hard like a troglodyte travesty and actually giving a proper reasoning behind your inferior attitude?

>>56645748
Huh? You clearly have no idea how these addons work on the underside, I'm only pointing this out and telling you a place you'd better fit in.

>>56645730
you know that this >>56645670 is true, right?

>>56645771
I'm pretty sure Linus Torvalds and John Carmack don't know how those adblockers work. Even though, they belong here, you retarded piece of shit. You don't have to know and be good at everything

ABP:
>slow and resource heavy (inefficient)
>owners accept money to deliberately ignore certain ads
>default filter lists are shit, need to add your own

uBlock0:
>fast and lightweight
>blocks ads unconditionally
>comes with a large number of good default filter lists (simple to set up)

>>56645637
Hiding the ads would be heavier than blocking them

Blocked ad = 0 resource cost

Care to point to the relevant commit in the source to substantiate your claim? Oh wait, you're pulling shit out from your ass.

uBlock Origin blocks content within advertisements (Images, videos, etc.) and then uses CSS to do as you said, hide the location in which the ad originally was. This is only done to make the page not contain tons of whitespace from the original ad. You have never looked at the source code of these addons or done any work with content blocking within any browser, so what say do you have here?

Nice trips btw.

Hiding ads eats less CPU cycles and RAM than blocking them. This is totally obvious.

>>56645996
So if there is a js file from blacklisted host on a site will uBlock in chromium actually block it?

>>56646045
The hell is this table? Any source?

>>56646055
Correct. Chromium APIs can block scripts before execution based on a number of factors. So can Firefox.

>>56646077
Then where does this uHide meme comes from?

DAILY REMINDER: uBlock (aka uHide) is NOT an ad blocker, it's an ad HIDER. It does this to make you think you're blocking ads when it's really delivering ads to you; ads aren't about selling products on the internet, it's about tracking you and selling your metadata. The uHide devs are in a deal with ad companies to push this onto unsuspecting users by confusing them with MOAR SPEED (only if you have an ancient shit system) and outright LIES about any accusations regarding not blocking things.

ABP is honest and out front about having a non-blocking list, and tells you exactly how to easily disable that when you first install it, even providing a link to the place to do it, and with that disabled, actually BLOCKS all ads.

Don't believe me? Use uHide and check your cache, then use ABP with the "acceptible ads" disabled and do the same.

Lovely bunch of ads cluttering your cache with uHide.

Best get logging a ticket then dipshit.

Gorhill's fork of uBlock (Ublock Origin) only hides the ads

The original uBlock (https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/ublock) actually blocked ads.

Not sure why that dipshit gorhill keeps trying to pull this shit with a product that isn't even his

>>56646133
Maybe the fact that it actually does do some Unnecessary hiding that can be configured and turned off using CSS? Or more likely just Adblock shills that have never touched the source code or API functions available...

Example, See >>56646163 and >>56646239

do you also believe microsoft that W10 is safe?

He was talking about ABP allowing "acceptable ads" to be shown.
It basically is selling this feature to ad networks for revenue.
Even worse is that it's opt-out and not opt-in.
https://adblockplus.org/acceptable-ads

ublock + umatrix here, supposedly an ad cdn blocked, malwarebytes emits an alert about blocking the connection to it

I genuinely don't understand this. Is it a joke that's going over my head where people post straight up lies about uBlock Origin for no apparent reason?

>>56651072

>I'm pretty sure Linus Torvalds and John Carmack don't know how those adblockers work.
I'm pretty sure they do, because it's really not complicated. Browser starts http request, adblocker checks if url matches a blacklist entry, adblocker deletes the element from the DOM tree. All you need is basic knowledge about how the www works.
