My current plan is to use arkenfox user.js and Fennec. However, I’m concerned about relying on F-droid since they tend to get behind on security updates.

Is there a recommended Mull alternative? If not, is there a better place to get Fennec?

    Wasn’t announced with fanfare, but a commit back in February enabled ad content filtering from easylist.to, and it can be toggled under Site Settings in Vanadium. It’s also noted now in their Vanadium features page, around bullet point 12:

    High performance content filtering engine using EasyList + EasyPrivacy with per-site toggle via drop-down permission menu

    The GOS recommended way still involves doing all this at the DNS level, as that is the most effective. I recall a recommendation to use RethinkDNS recently – the app has a built-in ad filtering ability. Still, this is nice from a cosmetic standpoint for day-to-day browsing.

    Kudos to user ‘quh4gko8’ on Github for pushing the update (and any others not directly noted).
