AdBlo is a Manifest V3 ad blocker for Chrome. Blocks ads, trackers, malware and miners. Pause on any site with a timer, fix broken sites automatically, and block elements by pointing at them. No acceptable ads, no telemetry, no account. You didn't block 4,600 ads. You got 19 hours of your life back - that's $380 worth of your time. A block count is a statistic. Time is the thing you actually lost. AdBlo shows both β on every page, and for all time.
Hey Product Hunt π
Last year Chrome finished phasing out Manifest V2, and uBlock Origin β the blocker I'd used for a decade β stopped working. Its Manifest V3 successor is deliberately cut down: no element picker, no scriptlets, no dynamic filtering. So I built the blocker I wanted to still have.
AdBlo blocks the junk. Then it fixes the fallout.
The feature I actually built it for: when a site breaks, AdBlo turns filter layers off in halves and reloads, so nine possible culprits become about four questions. Then it names the one responsible and offers a one-click fix. Everyone with a blocker has spent twenty minutes toggling lists to find a broken checkout page. I got tired of that.
A few other things:
βΈοΈ Pause with a real timer β 5 min, an hour, until the tab closes. With a countdown, so you stop accumulating a whitelist of sites you unblocked once in 2023.
β±οΈ Time, not just counts β "4,612 blocked" is a statistic about my software. "19 hours" is a fact about your life. You set your own hourly rate; the money figure is an estimate and says so.
π« No acceptable ads. Not off by default β absent. Nobody pays to get through.
What it can't do: if a streaming platform uses server-side ad insertion, the ad is spliced into the video before it reaches your browser β same segments, same servers as the show. No extension solves that. Not AdBlo, not uBlock Origin. I'd rather say so now than have you find out after installing.
Happy to answer anything, including the awkward ones. What's the site that breaks worst for you with your current blocker? That's my roadmap.
