I’m a big fan of Safari and how seamlessly it works with all my Apple devices, but these ads are pushing me to the edge. I can’t even get through an article without being interrupted by some ad or another. It’s super annoying.

I’ve looked up older threads on this, and I’m choosing between two adblockers rn - Stop the Madness and Magic Lasso. They both seem like they could be a solution, but I’m not sure which one to go for. Anything that stands out?

Are there other options I’m missing?

I’d really appreciate any advice or insights you guys can offer.

    I use AdGuard for free, it’s not blocking every ads out there. But there are sites i didn’t realized had ads bcs i didn’t see them in the first place.

      I use their dns based Adblock and it’s working flawlessly no app required just install the profile from their website.

      I use AdGuard(pro, there was a lifetime deal a long time ago). It’s great.

        For anyone interested, you can basically always get Adguard Premium on StackSocial for super cheap. I got a lifetime family pack of licenses for $20 when I bought it. A lot better than paying for something that’ll only work on iOS and maybe MacOS tbh.

      This is what I use too and it works great. No more ads. Now the only thing that irks me are the sites who ask me to turn off ad blockers.
