I am now running @TBlock GUI on my machine to test on TROMjaro on a daily basis and provide feedback (bugs, features). Seems like a fantastic idea: system wide ads/tracker blocking with a nice GUI. I want to eventually add it to TROMjaro by default.

Nice to see there's an open source system-wide ad blocker out there. Have been using AdGuard for a few years already, but unfortunately it's freemium.. Just a little bit of statistics I have:

It never ceases to amaze me how many resources are actually wasted just for the sake of trading. Good to have the tools like @TBlock to see the Web how it supposed to be, as a saner place for Humans, not buyers and traders ffs.

Btw, this is how exactly the modern Web without the blockers for ads, cookies popups, subscribtion offers and other shit looks to me, it's insane!! (temporarily disable your blockers to experience it in full :laughing: ) https://how-i-experience-web-today.com/

@esh

If I recall correctly, @aral used to be in the ad block business.
Might have some comments on this subject here.

I think that's adguard. I would love too to see some TBlock Stats. Any plans to add that @TBlock ?
in reply to Tio

Unfortunately yes, that's from adguard. Joining to others, the stats in @TBlock would be a nice thing to have.

@esh @cyberghost It would be nice, indeed. Sadly, it is not possible, because TBlock only tells your system what to block. It doesn't block the servers directly but does instead modifies a file called the "hosts file", and the blocking is directly done by the system based on the content of this file.
