I have some questions for AdGuard browser extension users:
  1. Do you enable stealth mode in settings?
  2. Is it better than Cookie AutoDelete?
  3. Will it affect the performance?

I've tried both AdGuard's stealth mode and Cookie AutoDelete, and enabling stealth mode in AdGuard has been quite effective for enhancing privacy while browsing. It does a good job of blocking trackers and other unwanted elements. As for performance, I haven't noticed any significant slowdowns, but your mileage may vary depending on your system and browsing habits. Overall, I find it a solid choice for boosting online privacy.

Thank you, I removed Cookie AutoDelete and replaced it with AdGuard's stealth mode.

For me, slowdown happens with DNS protection (sometimes, a server is fast, and sometimes not, so I have to switch to another), but I think it's related to ISP quality, region, etc.

Can you control the DNS from the AdGuard browser extension?
