I thought the addon had advantages vs simply add a filter list to ubo, or am I wrong?
On Android, you can add Ublock to the Firefox mobile browser (use the Mull fork and you even have about:config). This plus NoScript gives a seamless experience between my phone and my Linux desktop. Almost never hear or see ads thanks to this and LibreTube/Sponsorblock.
Do you know if the custom lists sync across machines? If I add it to my laptop, will it show up in Firefox on my desktop?
I don't know as I don't use Firefox’s sync feature, but I don't believe so. I customize everything via config and txt files from my git repos.
If anyone else knows though, please chime in.
Future me here. Confirmed that custom lists do not sync across. You have to re-add them on each computer.
Hey future you, you can sync uBo lists to Drive and have them sync under settings
It does, it works better and covers more sites, but at the cost of security (increasing attack surface) and using more resources. Pros and cons to both.
