• What It's Like to Use Apple's Lockdown Mode

  You should check out https://noscript.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Is javascript always bad?

  Good or bad depends on the intentions of the website you're visiting, and unfortunately also of the many 3rd party script sources it includes. Users should have a chance to decide which sites they trust to run JavaScript and which they do not, and this is the reason why 18 years ago I've created NoScript, and why it is still there and shipped by default inside the Tor Browser.

• PSA: We're all ripe for phishing attempts while looking for Reddit alternatives

  Use a different name, password, and email if you can. Keep an adblocker and noscript handy. Don't accept cookies from new sites. Maybe even use the TOR browser for better anonymity and safety while you're giving these new platforms a test run. Source: 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Browsing the web with JavaScript turned off?

  I do (with the NoScript browser extension: https://noscript.net/). The main reason is to reduce my attack surface. A secondary benefit is it eliminates most ads and other annoying distractions. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• GitHub Stars as a FOSS Metrics? 🤔

  I'll give an example of NoScript which is a great project that you should be using. Most people download the extension directly though their browser. Firefox shows 317,244 active users and Chromium shows 100,000+ users. Some people know of the website. Less people know of the GitHub project the NoScript Common Library (nscl). NoScript has 645 stars and nscl has 15 stars. 417,244+ active users and only 660 stars.... Source: 12 months ago

• How I stay (more) focused with ADHD

  Tip: I use Adblock Plus on desktop, and AdGuard on iPhone and iPad. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• [Vent] YouTube forcing adblock removal, here's what you can do!

  Adblock plus => I only use this one with Edge because Opera has a default adblocker of its own, but this is also a very welcome extension and something that can (and will) keep you safe! Source: 6 months ago

• Why are there differences between the EasyList filter lists mirrors!?

  Why doesn't easylist.to link to its own version of the Fanboy's Annoyance List? Why are the lists (and especially the "EasyList Germany") on the mirror (?) of adblockplus.org more up-to-date than on easylist.to? Source: 12 months ago

• Problem with popups

  That can be annoying. Do you see them on Flipboard or when you navigate to the actual website of the article? If that's the case, then it would be up to the website that is hosting the article. I would recommend a good popup/ad blocker like adblock plus. Source: about 1 year ago

• "He gets us" is taken over my feed
