Feature request: Adblocker

It would be great if there was an option to enable or disable an ad blocker. I understand not everyone would want an ad blocker, but I feel that most people would use an ad blocker.

Not a solution for the browser specifically, but a work-around for this (if it is your network), is adding a Pi Hole https://pi-hole.net/ to block ads network wide.

You just need to:

  • Install the Pi hole software on a Raspberry Pi (or an old computer with Linux) connected to your network
  • Adjust your router to get DNS from the Pi hole instead of your ISP

In theory, some Safari compatible adblocker could be used as well, right? uBlock sadly doesn't have support, but AdBlock Plus has(which I just discovered is open source, too) How about to add a toggle in tab settings to toggle the "adblocker extension"? Just thinking that it would be easier to implement. (I would guess)
