• Show HN: uBlock Origin filters to remove distractions

  I recommend 1Blocker. One feature that is rarely mentioned is they can also block some ads in apps and not just Safari, by using a VPN profile which filters trackers locally. https://1blocker.com. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Hush – Noiseless Browsing for Safari

  Hush is one of the extensions on my devices, but both Hush and AdGuard Pro take a back seat to: A) 1Blocker: https://1blocker.com/ B) Orion Browser by Kagi: https://browser.kagi.com/ The first brings all the blocking customisation one needs to MacOS and iOS Safari, the other runs Firefox and Chrome extensions such as uBlock Origin: https://browser.kagi.com/faq.html#extensions. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Apple to Mass Produce Its Own MicroLED Displays for iPhones

  You can run 1Blocker[0] on both Mac and iOS. You can also pair it with NextDNS[1] if you want even more blocking. [0] https://1blocker.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• us What's a good (under $500, preferably lower than $200 though) android for geeks?

  Ironically, Pixels are the best for de-Googling. GrapheneOS requires a Pixel, as does CalyxOS for the most part. If you don't want your money going to Google, a used/refurb Pixel gets around that in my opinion. Source: 12 months ago

  Oh I see makes sense, one closed system needs another 😅 but if you look at Android, look at https://grapheneos.org/ and https://calyxos.org/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Android vs Apple phones

  I agree with your point, but wanted to ask, have you considered using a device with a degoogled AOSP-based OS like GrapheneOS or CalyxOS? Source: about 1 year ago
