Ask HN: What ist your AdBlock strategy?

- Pi-Hole can run on OpenWRT if your router is powerful enough, on a Linux box, in a Docker container, and on a Synology. You don't need a Raspberry Pi to run it.

- Look at https://nextdns.io as an alternative.

- I use uBlock Origin and NextDNS at home.

You do not need all filter lists checked in uBlock. Maybe 3 or 4 + what it gives you out of the box.

Ignorant question: what ad blocking is required outside of your browser to require anything more than something like ublock?

Iridium browser with Ublock Origin on my Mac and Wipr with Safari on my phone.

I, not yet wanting particularly to extricate myself from Chrome, use Ublock Origin Lite. It works about as well as the original (although it's less good with paywalls and blocking individual site elements, by which I mean 'not good at all'.) If you can and don't already I would try to replace as much as you can with RSS (which is also really good with paywalls - I use feeder.co and it lets me get around the Atlantic's paywall. Its privacy policy is here: https://feeder.co/help/legal/privacy-policy/. It's hosted in Sweden, in the EU, for what that's worth.)

But as you might have figured out from my use of Chrome, I'm mostly ok with the fact that Google knows everything about me. So I'm probably not the best person to ask.
