[QUOTE="SohanRay, post: 1031934, member: 94632"] I do tests at times to see which ones are better actually. By trying to visit malicious domains to see if the security solution is blocking me. So adguard rarely blocks any of them. ControlD and Nextdns are however pretty good. And if you're using adguard public free dns then , they actually have their dns filter present in GitHub, which ControlD and Nextdns uses in addition to other filters for blocking ads and trackers. So logically speaking, ControlD and Nextdns provides better adblocking at dns level if you consider this scenario.The browser extension is however fine to use and in video ads are something dns filtering can't block but extensions can. Although adguard does have false positives,so you need to be open to turning it off from time to time or having an allowlist. [/QUOTE]
