Several years ago, I used Blockada, which was frequently recommended. According to some discussion threads, it seems to have fallen from grace.

What ad blocker that doesn’t require root do you use? What’s your experience with it? Would you recommend it?

      Plus it’s free under 300k queries a month. I’ve been using it for years and never hit my limit. I should pay for it though, it’s not expensive and I’ve gotten a lot of value out of it.

          I considered setting up a pi hole or something similar, but worry about the bus situation and my family. I figure NextDNS would be easier to maintain or remove than added hardware.

        Same with me. After I’ve read you comment i bought the subscription. This service is so worth to me.

          I am looking at installing some custom firmware in my router that will do DNS over https and setting NextDNS for my whole house. I’ll definitely need to pay for it then.
