moving to uBlock was at first waiting on it to be included in Debian, but then abandoned as the Adblock in Tails doesn't allow the accepted ads by default (ignoring the performance improvements):

Sounds like this ticket was raised before the uBlock / Origin split. It would probably be worth re-opening or re-submitting the ticket explicitly with regards to: A) That uBlock Origin is still actively worked on while uBlock has largely stalled. B) The evidence[0] that uBlock Origin operates with substantially less overhead than Adblock Plus C) The ability for uBlock Origin to double as a Javascript blocker.
