Genuine question, if you're willing to indulge me: Why aren't you using ad-blocking of one type or another?

(Assumption: You're tech literate, given the audience of this website. So I tend to assume it must be a conscious decision not to use adblocking)

I don't browse without it these days.

i have ublock origin on my pc and macbook. trying firefox mobile with ublock but it's still habit to open chrome on my phone

Strong recommend for Android, Firefox and uBlock Origin

I also have these Extensions:

  ClearURLs

  Decentraleyes

  Privacy Badger

  I still don't care about cookies
Privacy Badger and UBlock Origin don't work well together, and LocalCDN is better than Decentraleyes
Nah, Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin do work well together.
You may think that, but no, they don't - and both authors of both apps state so.

What's happening is you are not getting any clear errors so you think that's the case, but you're running an inefficient setup without any doubt.

Orion on iOS running Firefox extensions works quite well
