I was too annoyed by ads in sites so i do some research blocking those ads. I feel you guys.

Im using android phone so idk if it works in pc.


Edit; you can also do it on pc

Here you go....

1st: go to Settings>>>Connection and Sharing

2nd: Click on Private DNS

3rd: put "dns.adguard.com" (remove ")

4th: Save


Now try browsing sites with annoying ads and boom theyre gone ✌️✌️

It works well most of the time, not as good as actual adblocker app/plugin, but still.

I removed all references to unsavory elements and cleaned up the post.
This is legit advice, DNS-based ad blocking is a thing, Adguard is a thing, it works on Windows as well, anywhere where you can customize your resolvers, although how far I would trust Adguard to not sell my shit to the highest bidder... I dunno.

Blokada on Android is one of the better options if you want to block mobile ads. It lets you set customer adlists so you have more control over just using Adguard's DNS, which is limited to whatever Adguard chooses. > https://blokada.org/
Use it on my own, since 4 years now, very, very reliable and adjustable :)

On an Android, I either use my VPN (Windscribe) or DNS66 app to block ads while on PC it's Brave with its adblocker + remove element addon. SponsorBlock + Dislike Return for YouTube are great, too.

The Remove Element addon is kind of amazing as it cleans up webpages to my liking so I don't see unnecessary junk that I don't want (hyperlinked images to the iOS/Play Store, unneeded info, items on discount, video ads, etc).

How dare you be so selfish!! Watch ads and support content creators! :<

There are options to address this concern. I have a lot of useful plugins installed, among them the same AdBlock, which at least until recently worked very well. In general, it still works for me, but I often hear that in some areas advertising is not saved. Why don't you try YouTube Vanced? I know there are no unnecessary commercials, and the working principle is similar to the true YouTube Premium. I also have other useful extensions for YouTube, such as volume up, smart pause, and a playlist calculator which computes the length of a YouTube playlist.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves
