Wipr (Ad blocker). Set it and forget it! It's not a resource hog either.
9 0 ReplyWhat makes you choose Wipr over AdGuard and Ghostery?
3 0 Replyadblockers for Safari work in two ways:
- Setting a content blocker list of rules (fast, simple). Very likely they all share similar lists.
- Dynamic JavaScript injection, this can block more complex ads.
AdGuard does both, which is why it’s good.
I’ve never used Wipr, but zero customization sounds awful.

Do you need a paid license to get both features, or is the free version enough?
1 0 ReplyI use it for free, no issues. Paid gets you DNS blocking.
2 0 ReplyMost are free. YouTube adblocking is paid, not sure which others.
2 0 ReplyAh, gotcha. Yeah, looks like premium handles more complex adblocking too. But in general I haven’t had any issues with the free version of AdGuard that would lead me to needing an IAP.
1 0 ReplyThanks! I'm going to try the free version :)

Wipr does both too, and the lack of configurability isn't as bad as you think it is. But if that's a dealbreaker for you, then stay away from it.

Just tried Ghostery, and it misses a lot of ads.
