It'd be great if you could share your experiences/thoughts on this extension. Both of these products are going to stop the websites from tracking your information through cookies and also ensure that you don’t receive pop-up ads.

but the AdGuard is an application for Mac, Windows, and Android. You can add custom filters just like adblock/plus as well. The first thing to understand is that the AdBlock is an extension that can be added in browsers like Chrome, Safari, Firefox etc. Again, I can't really definitively measure the resources used but the settings interface on its own is quite well made and organised. However, it is quite barebones without too much control over the ad blocking.Īdguard has been in development for Chrome for some time now that claims to be a lightweight and modern version of Adblock with a simpler interface and most importantly a lower consumption of resources. Youre linking images to information about the Windows standalone version of Adguard which blocks ads OS-wide.

I found Bluhell Firewall to be very effective and lightweight (I didn't measure it though).

I had been using Adblock Edge in the past but after stumbling upon uBlock (for Chrome) I was intrigued to see if Firefox had any lightweight ad blocking extensions. I was trying to compare some lightweight adblock alternatives as I need something for a low end machine that doesn't have too much RAM.
