2026 - Physical adblocker for ads on the NYC subway. [video]

Because I keep meeting android users who allow themselves to suffer ads through this and similar apps for no reason here's how to not do that to yourself:

Download and open the firefox app

Tap the three dots on the bottom right and hit Extensions

Tap Extensions Manager then scroll down and tap Find More Extensions

Search "adblock" for and install a decent adblocker like ublock origin or adguard

Go to the website you wish to de-app and de-ad e.g. YouTube.com, Tumblr.com etc.

Tap the three dots on the bottom right, scroll down, and hit "Add app to home screen"

This will add an icon to your phone's home screen just like the official app used to have, but now you can access the platform without any ads

Congrats, this literally takes less than a few minutes!

Google should add a feature where if I see the same ad three times on the same day I can pay 29.99 to make a feral hog that has been covered in baby oil run rampant across corporate office of the company the ad belongs to

That's it, I'm done with Firefox

Mozilla's New CEO: It's Time to Evolve Firefox Into an AI Browser

Can the AI push from Anthony Enzor-DeMeo mesh with the company's goal to be the most trusted software provider?

It's just not worth it anymore. I've been using firefox because I hate the chromium monopoly and I love adblocking. Having to turn off all the ai bloat whenever they decide to reenable it, having to deal with a bunch of websites not working properly, and it's recent lack of performance has been bad enough. If I wanted an AI Browser I'd fucking seek it out.

Ai browsers have more security vulnerabilities, and I don't see them fixing prompt injection attacks anytime soon. I want something that will work on older hardware. I want something that doesn't force my fans to run like hell. I'm done.

I'd love to stay on gecko, but it might just be time to give in and go back to chromium.

I'll probably look at Vivaldi and Waterfox as primary replacements. If anyone has any better recommendations I'm willing to take them.
