What users praise

  • Powerful ad blocker that "blocks EVERYTHING" — second only to uBlock Origin, 16M users
  • Works in the browser, on Windows, across OSes and browsers (Arc, Chromebook); used for years
  • Reliable, saves time and nerves; lifetime license available

What users complain about

  • Sometimes "forgets" it's installed — the icon stops responding until a browser restart
  • Stopped blocking sponsored ads in Gmail for some
  • Settings import breaks; isolated search-hijack conflicts (Yandex instead of Google)
