Can you use ublock when searching on android or iphone?

uBlock works with Firefox's mobile browser

Do you personally use Firefox's mobile browser for searching in Google? Does it work well with voice commands?

It's much harder to understand how rich Elon Musk is, because if he tried to sell even a small percentage of his Tesla shares, the value would evaporate. The revenue figures of these companies are more understandable because that is cold hard cash coming in the door

He actually sold a boatload of TSLA last year [1]. But yes, his wealth is not really expressible in USD. If you tried to acquire a similar stake in TSLA, the price would shoot up and it would cost you more. If he tried to sell all his shares, it would plummet and he’d get less out. 1: https://www.wsj.com/articles/elon-musks-tesla-share-selling-...

>t it's basically impossible to escape the ads on it these days, so it's not surprising ublock origin seems to do fine. Unless you are suggesting that the ad-ladden SEO'd pages are their real product?

I don't use voice at all other than "set an alarm for ____" but firefox search works just fine and ublock origin works great on it. It's a little slower than chrome but you would never notice it unless you're doing ms level tests on it.

Also PiHole is a great tool. I suggest it it you Walt a very good ads shield :)

I have used a PiHole ever since I learned that LittleSnitch resolves DNS queries (to IP) before the dialog prompts whether to Allow/Deny a connection to the unlisted host. It is an added bonus that I can route my entire subnet to the local PiHole, which prevents rogue software/OS/devices/phones from initiating undesired connections. If you know how to make a few simple IPfilter rules, you can even stop hard-coded dev…

Ublock will get you 99% of the way there tho unless for some reason you're stuck using chrome. Then usually brave or vivaldi will fill in the gap. Avoid chrome always.

Run it locally on docker.

On a mobile device?

You might be able to using tmux, if you are on apple you might be out of luck, unless you want to run it on a server and set your DNS to it.

Was thinking more in the vein of similar but different to PiHole on a cloud instance. Connect as a VPN. Not sure how much lag that would introduce, and if you could use it in place of pihole for local network at home as well. Set it up once, use it for everything.

Probably not as cheap as a Pi, but more beneficial. blah blah. decisions! yay!
