Ask HN: What ist your AdBlock strategy?

Hi, Just installed OpenWRT. Which solutions for ad blocking and other trackers would you recommend? Pi-Hole is not a option, since I don't have one laying around.

So anything else I can try which will work out of the box? For links and guides I'd be happy. PS: I got dual antennas what would come into your mind to do with it?

I feel sort of odd never having installed an ad blocker, but firefox must do some stuff also because a few websites still complain and tell me to turn it off, whatever "it" is. I'm pretty good with the youtube skip button does that count?

Likely referencing Firefox's enhanced tracking protection.

You can control it with the lil purple shield icon to the left of the address bar (not that you're obliged to disable it for some website just because they asked, of course!)
