Last time I tried Wipr+Safari, it didn't match the power of uBO+Chrome.



I have been using Wipr v2, which achieves a 100% block rate in tests. In comparison, uBlock Origin (uBO) typically reaches 98–99% on the same tests.

The fact that Chrome has nerfed ad blockers prompted me to switch. I have used Chrome consistently since its early alpha versions around 2008.

However, ad blockers are absolutely essential to me. The web is not safe without them.
