You are right, I ran the test on Mull + uBlock Origin on a phone running an ad/tracker blocker at OS level, and this tool reported connections that I couldn’t find in my logs.
It however helped me identify appmetrica.yandex.ru which was not blocked.
89% without @@*$redirect-rule in My Filters, 96% with it added. Just using uBlock Origin with all filters on regular Fennec for Android (Firefox stable fork), and dns.adguard-dns.com private DNS sprinkled on top. Getting rid of that redirect rule though since I’m guessing it’ll just cause breakage for me.
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.
DNS adblock will still not come anywhere close to a browser adblocking extension. They want to add content filters to Vanadium eventually though. But if you care about adblocking, Firefox is really the only way to go, and also doesn’t contribute to unhealthy Google monopoly.
