by T3chN1nja, a year agoWhy did the developer or developers decide to do one of the dumbest redesigns? I don't buy the based on user input BS. Typical statement made by poor developer design. Yes I've done website and app design. Put the "Pause Ghostery" button back when you click on the icon. It's quicker vs going into the settings. Like why? I need to be able to quickly toggle the pause frequently and now it's more clicks for zero reasons. I can still pause my UBlock Origin that way right on the icon click. But in it's place you tell the user where to go find it. We want the pause button back!

"Pause on this site" is back in the panel. Unfortunately you cannot make use of it on Firefox as the version carrying it is pending review with the Mozilla AMO team. It's released on all other browsers.
Best,

Developers need to find a work around for this or we'll be tracked and swamped with ads pretty soon.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16508766, 14 days agoFor me, the best blocker for Firefox.
I see not a single crappy ads on web pages and youtube, and everything runs smoothly. - Rated 5 out of 5by Fawaz, 17 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Weillyn, 17 days agoTLDR: Lightweight, easy to use, informative, and effective. Highly recommend.
I've been using Ghostery for years now and it is by far the most effective adblock I've used. The interface is clean, easy to navigate, and easy to understand (even for those with minimal PC knowledge.) Almost all ads are blocked; it is very rare that I end up seeing ads, and when I do, it's usually an obscure website, or YouTube breaking through briefly before a new update comes through promptly. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14461639, 19 days ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15114289, 20 days agoWorked fine until some days ago. It just slows down the browser a lot and YT is basically unusable.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Ashley, 21 days agoThis works great! It not only blocks ads, it also blocks trackers too! This is something I will always use! I wish there was a mobile version to block this stuff when browsing on a phone though!
