We're building an open-source, system-wide ad-blocker called Zen.
It sits outside the browser, so it's unaffected by the artificial limitations of Manifest V3 (among other benefits), so I'd recommend it to anyone still using Chrome.
We're aiming for 100% feature parity with uBO and other ad-blockers (already 90% there). Check it out if you're interested: https://github.com/ZenPrivacy/zen-desktop

@anfragment @Kerplunk @QuercusMacrocarpa @ublockorigin this actually looks pretty interesting. Looks like it’s essentially a local-run explicit web proxy doing MiTM/TLSI?

@anfragment @k3ym0 @QuercusMacrocarpa @ublockorigin Zen, looks good, working on the same principal as NetGuard on android which is very effective, not always easy to setup though. I will be testing Zen on antiX 26 Multi Init beta. Will also put an info post on antiX forum sometime soon.
