[2025 update: Recently switched over to Linux Mint, was worried I wouldn't be able to continue using AdGuard as normal since (as of yet) there is no Linux-compatible A.G. "App" / Graphical User Interface. BUT I was very happy to find that even on Linux AG continues to be awesome:

1) the browser extension still works as normal

2) the recently released AdGuard-CLI for Linux works GREAT! (Command line is a bit of a learning curve, tho)

3) even if those didn't work, I can still use AG's DNS filtering via my router. Haven't run into any issues since!]

Fantastic AdBlocker; haven't seen a YouTube ad in ages. Easy to set up & manage, only rarely encounter compatibility issues w/ site permissions & utility popups (easy fix to pause blocking, in those cases).

Very impressed with the free version, fully satisfied after purchasing the standard version (ONE-TIME PAYMENT?? No subscription, license lasts FOREVER?! Heck YES! :D )

Have it on both my & my spouse's phones, laptops, and desktop. Gamechanging.

This is actually well worth the money I paid on Google. It does the job of blocking ads and trackers remarkably well!

I confirmed that new Youtube anti-adblocker is avoidable with a few user rules and reloading playback screen. I expect the author implement a kind of workaround like this.

SEHR TOLLE APP

best ad blocker

The only blocker so far that bypasses the new 'turn off your adblocker or the vidio won't play' youtube feature

It seems to not be detected by youtube so I don't get the "Ad blockers Are Not Allowed On Youtube" Pop-up
