This post explains why and how Kaushik Gopal uses Firefox and provides some handy tips.

He recommends enabling the AdGuard filters in the uBlock Origin settings but the extension flags all of them as out of date. Any issues with these filters?

Update: I need to refresh and apply the filter list. Thanks @laurentb

EDIT: my uBlock Origin was way outdated, updating fixed it, thanks @heldenstad (have now set add-ons to auto-update too)

Just in the last couple of days, I've noticed #ublockorigin has become very aggressive, making even the rendering of Wikipedia pages horrible.

Anyone else get this? I imagine it has something to do with one of the blocklists, but don't know how to figure out which without switching each on off :/

I left a MS SharePoint tab open and uBlock Origin tells me it's blocked 2,998 things (elements?) on the page so far. That number ticks up over time.
