This is the UI dialog that pops up when the uBO button in the toolbar is clicked. The improvement in actual usage was also clear. I clearly noticed a 50% or more reduction in memory usage with uBlock Origin compared to ABP. If you need to turn off blocking or change a configuration just click its button in the toolbar. (Confusingly, there is also a uBlock addon, which is a fork of this.) Just install the addon and you are set! It uses many lists that are maintained online and the blocking is automatic. Searching for a leaner alternative to ABP I switched to uBlock Origin. Using the Task Manager in Chrome I noticed that one of the main culprits was AdBlock Plus which was hogging memory. I recently switched to an older notebook and my Chrome and Firefox browsers were quite slow on it. □ 2015-Sep-26 ⬩ ✍️ Ashwin Nanjappa ⬩ □️ extension, firefox ⬩ □ Archive
