Please tell me more.if you are going to use Adguard, don't activate the antipishing function - a lot of people complain about it for slowing down pages.
Edge can do that too
In my WebRTC test of Adguard Adblocker's WebRTC setting against using WebRTC Control extension for BraveI've been using ublock for a long long time. It's excelent!
However, after @security123 told me that Adblock had the possibility to clear urls (as ClearURL extension), i decided to use adguard!
Basically, i'm changing for Adguard for a few reasons:
1) I can disable 1 extension i've been using: Cookies Autodelete and use the auto destroy function from Adguard (and focus only on 3th party cookies)
2) I don't need to add and trust another extension to do something adguard already does: ClearURL
3) Adguard is signed for Microsoft Edge
4) I checked their privacy policy and it's very good!
5) I can enable all filters i was using with ublock (wich is basically all you need). And adguard filters are optimized (meaning they are constantly removing unused rules)
6) it had the main extras from ublock, like blocking WebRTC
Say malwaretips.com and wilderssecurity.com
For uMatrix users that's no problem as uMatrix can do that.
Yes and it is possible to block Google search cookies in a chromium based browser other than ChromeEdge can do that too
I block all third party cookies by default and then get a icon in URL-bar which provide the control about cookies and also display every site cookie
Nope.
uBlock Origin is now maintained in the core repository
As the new Microsoft Edge is based on Chromium, development of uBlock Origin for Microsoft is done entirely in the core repository, as Microsoft Edge's extension platform is the same as Chromium's. To contribute pull requests or report issues, go to the core repository at gorhill/uBlock.
Downloading uBlock Origin for Microsoft Edge
Check the icon for Edge on your computer and match it to the instructions below:
New Edge based on Chromium
You can install the latest version of uBlock Origin from the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store. This is kept up-to-date with the latest version on the Chrome Web Store.
Legacy Edge
Due to the complexities and time requirements to maintain compatibility with the legacy version of Microsoft Edge, this fork is no longer supported. It is highly recommended that you upgrade your version of Microsoft Edge by downloading the update at Microsoft's website. Once you have updated, follow the instructions above for installation of uBlock Origin on New Edge.
github.com

But it's still another dev and Gorhill doesn't care about Windows so this port exist.

Opera not need adblockerDownloads and versions of AdGuard at the moment:
Download - v3.4.19 - Firefox (AMO)
Download - v3.4.19 - Chrome (Web Store)
Download - v3.3.8 - Opera (Opera Addons)
Download - v3.4.19 - Edge (Microsoft Edge Addons)
Download - v3.3.8 - Edge Legacy (Microsoft Store)
With AdGuard the Opera and the legacy Edge (still supported?) version are a little bit behind.

I usually have only problems with website which require you to share screen, or they have some kind of interactive website. Youtube worked always totally fine.
Tybm @Lenny_Fox i was looking for that info!!!!!!! I believe i won't need to store any 3th party cookie, but if i need, i'll use that
I've read some posts about people complaining they wouldn't use Adguard cause it slowed down pages. A few guys advised that the problem was related with the security features from adguard and suggested to disable them. Everyone i saw testing it, said that adguard became as fast as ublock after those changes. That makes sense, as the only feature that could make a difference in slowing down pages in adguard (compared to ublock) is the antipishing features, as both use mainly the same method to prevente tracking and ads.
The problem with that approach is that you have to micromanage all pages you want to allow sites you want to have 3th party. The adguard autodestroy feature allows you to don't worry about 3th party cookies most of the time, as they will be destroyed after some days (or less). If occasionally, you find a problem, you only have to add an exception as @Lenny_Fox mentioned. The bad side is that party cookies are allowed, but if they are not tracking you (as they shouldn't if you are blocking trackers), that should not be a problem. Anyway. i added Privacy Badger to my config to make sure i'm blocking all trackers.Edge can do that too
I block all third party cookies by default and then get a icon in URL-bar which provide the control about cookies and also display every site cookie
The reason of preventing WebRTC it to avoid IP leak. As you can see, both tests are prevent your IP to be showed. Disable webrtc protection in adguard and repeat the test. You'll see your ip there.
I don't know exactly how hyperlink auditing works and the consequences of it for privacy. Can you tell me more about it pls?
