        Wipr is a simple “set it and forget it” extension. While it’s not as flexible as AdGuard, it’s also a lot less complicated to use because it manages the filters automatically. But it does not have a way to modify the filters.

        I’ve never tried Ghostery, but I should check it out.

        adblockers for Safari work in two ways:

        • Setting a content blocker list of rules (fast, simple). Very likely they all share similar lists.
        • Dynamic JavaScript injection, this can block more complex ads.

        AdGuard does both, which is why it’s good.

        I’ve never used Wipr, but zero customization sounds awful.

          Do you need a paid license to get both features, or is the free version enough?
