Serious question: what is the best add blocker right now? I've been using ublock origin, but it doesn't seem to be working that well these days.
ublock origin by far. Just refresh the filter list every now and then.
To be absolutely sure no one gets this wrong - uBlock Origin is what you want. Not just uBlock.
To be even absolutelier sure no one gets this wrong - use uBlock Origin on Firefox (or one of it's forked versions) because every other Browser runs chromium under it's hood which heavily restricts ad blocking abilities
Add no-script to the mix and you are golden. On mobile I use adguard to filter ads from pretty much every single app and website. As soon as I can figure out a couple of things bothering me with FF mobile I'll be moving over to it with extensions.
