96% but it's not accurate. Verified on my DNS logs that the two it claimed weren't blocked, actually resolved to 0.0.0.0 correctly, so I'm actually at 100%

100% using Orion on macOS, no extensions.
It's a damn shame that browser only exists on the mac. When it comes to Linux, I'm going for it.

Got 100% on ios using Orion with Ublock-origin
5% on stock chrome for Android. Guess this week is the week I switch to firefox mobile (73% with stock uBlock Origin)
89% according to the tool, but should be 100%. The tool itself says it can't detect it in some cases. I manually checked the 16 domains it flagged aa unfiltered and neither of them worked.
93% on my iPad with an ahaDNS profile installed. The only thing that makes it through are Apple’s stuff. All things considered, I’m fine with that.
74% with ublock origin for Firefox
I have quite a few browsers installed, all with adblock.
surprisingly, vivaldi did the best with 85%
100% with Brave in aggressive mode, and a Pi-Hole behind it.
93% with Firefox and privacy badger on Windscribe VPN adblocking enabled. 55% with Windscribe disabled.
Was getting 71% on Librewolf with only uBlock Origin. Enabled every blocklist in the extension and am now getting 100%. Thanks for sharing!
96% using Android Firefox Beta with ublock, nextdns, and a VPN.
Nextdns AND a VPN? 🤔
I pretty much always use a VPN these days because I hate Comcast and don't like them seeing my traffic. I like nextDNS because it gives me centralized management and filtering of DNS for all my devices, it's definitely worth the $20 a year. I forgot to mention I also have the extensions CanvasBlocker, WebRTC Blocker, and LocalCDN but I think it is likely just ublock origin (and nextDNS filtering) that got my score to 96%.
93% with Firefox and Ghostery behind Windscribe VPN. I've got a few other addons disabled like Decentraleyes and Ublock, but a combination of those with Ghostery didn't do any higher. Pretty sure I disabled them because Ghostery did everything they did. The stuff let in are to make websites like Youtube and Google usable. It's a tradeoff.
87% with NoScript, Privacy Badger, uBlock
53% with stock Firefox Focus on Samsung galaxy
90 % with UBO+Pihole
99% in Firefox with uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Decentraleyes and AdGuard Home.
I got 93% on mobile with the same setup.
Although I'm not sure if decentraleyes is working
96% with Brave Browser (android) and DNS66 (custom block list)
Interestingly, I get a better result with only nextdns profile with hagi pro on iOS 87%, compared to nextdns + iCloud private relay 37%. What gives? Nextdns still handles my requests with private relay enabled, I can see it in the logs of nextdns.
I also use the Firefox focus safari extension.
Score is also slightly less with nextdns and proton vpn at 81%.
I rather liked to iCloud private relay nextdns combo, should i change.
Orion gave me 100%, but that browser isn’t as polished compared to safari on iOS.

I usually use Adblocker Ultimate.
To check it, I disabled all the other extensions.

I added advice-ads.s3.amazonaws.com and ads.youtube.com to my ublock filter and those two still aren't getting blocked, anybody know how fix? the other two sites I added block fine.
91% 🤝
90% on Vanadium (which has no ad blocker) + Mullvad VPN. Good enough.
