Safari ads and pop up blocking

[cool11]

Believe me, all years, I have tried numerous solutions for pop up blocking and ads blocking in Safari.
I have gone through settings, 'websites', 'security' and so on.
I have installed adblock, adblock plus and so on.
From what I see, nothing can really work well!
All efforts, lead to a situation that some ads and pop ups are blocked, but most of them not!

In contrast, in Chrome and Firefox, all years I had very successful solutions, in the past and also now.
The latest years I use ublock origin lite, it is really fine.

So, I wonder if I am the only one that discovers that these topics are not handles well in Safari.
Is there any effective solution?

I use AdBlock Pro for Safari https://apps.apple.com/app/adblock-pro-for-safari/id1018301773
Also useful Hush Nag Blocker https://apps.apple.com/app/hush-nag-blocker/id1544743900

Don’t use multiple adblockers, stick to one. Ghostery is set once and forget, if AdGuard you can choose AdGuard own filters or use EasyList and Fanboy.

AdGuard is pretty good. Especially with the DNS blocking option. Worth paying for it on that basis.

Wipr and its follow up Wipr 2 have been working great for me for a few years now.

You're not alone many users find Safari's ad and pop-up blocking less effective than Chrome or Firefox. AdGuard or Wipr work decently.

uBlock Origin Lite is available in the App Store. You may need the latest version of Safari to enable it though - I don't know.

‎uBlock Origin Lite

‎uBO Lite (uBOL) is a reliable and efficient content blocker. The default ruleset corresponds to uBlock Origin's default filterset: - uBlock Origin's built-in filter lists - EasyList - EasyPrivacy - Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server list You can enable more rulesets by visiting the options...

I have somewhat the opposite problem. I turn off all ad blocking, including Safari's built-in Content Blocker, and I still can't get some sites to load a pop-up window until I click the "Reload without Content Blockers" button.
