@terterihei Have you tried StopAd?) We have nothing (I see, you like this word:) against ublock. But - we have users who moved from ublock to StopAd. Maybe they like that StopAd is an app (not an extension, like ublock) - you install it once and it blocks ads everywhere on your device. Maybe, because StopAd (unlike ublock) has 24/7 support and custom rules creating. Check it, if you want.

Thanks for replying, but: 1. why is an app better than an extension? 2. who even needs 24/7 support for adblocker? 3. ublock also does custom rules creating, umatrix also has it 2. where do you get your filter lists from? why shouldn't anyone think that you just copy the open source filter lists?

@terterihei Hey Eric, 1. because it blocks ads in all browsers at once and in other apps, obviously 2. The most interesting part - a lot, I tell you this as a person who regularly talks to our current early adopters directly. For example, ad blockers don't manage to block FB ads when FB ad serving algo changes, if something like this happens with StopAd, people adress the issue in the chat and it gets fixed in a few hours. 3. This is a really cool feature and it is especially helpful for advanced users. 4. We use combination of open-source filter list with our own filters and it works seemlesly in a synergy. Right now we're working hard to populate our own proprietary filter base with help of AI which is finding ads on sites with an active ad blocker+open-source filter on

@terterihei The main benefit of an app over an extension is blocking ads in apps that aren't browsers. That being said I'm not sure I want to add another monthly subscription.

@ryan_roberts1 What concerns do you have? All reliable antiviruses mark StopAd as a safe software. StopAd performs filtering on the user’s machine without sending any data outside the environment, so you can be sure that your personal data is safe.

@cathieholmes17 here are some stats we've got with our most earliest versions http://prntscr.com/if8v4q it shows the load time in seconds with StopAd and without StopAd, so due to these stats we mostly improve load time on popular sites and we do it pretty good

@felipeveiga Adguard is a solid piece of software, test us VS them and choose for yourself ;) . And you could always switch to StopAd free version with ad blocking in your favorite browser if it's good enough for you and you don't want to pay for subscription
