So all you do in your life is adding addresses to your hosts file? Morning till evening?

uBlock Origin addon for the browser. I use FF on Android so I can get the addon there as well

Adblock Plus because unlike uBlock Origin it actually blocks the ads instead of just hiding them.

Why the fuck did abp on Android stop working?

Things in this list to avoid:

>avast
>GOG
>mpv
>irfanview
>OneDrive/ownCloud
>qBittorrent/Transmission-Qt

Why?
Some of it is malware, some of it is shitty software.

Here is your book definition

>>54493474
no malware over here on my end from qbittorent

>>54489540
I'm using custom uBlock filter with 605 000 entries and my home router has 420 000 entries filter.
>>
>>54493425
>>mpv
>>Transmission-Qt
I realize this is bait, but I use mpv and Transmission on GNU/Linux, and they work very well.

Could you explain why you find them "shitty"?
>>
>>54493425
>avast
This is fine if you keep it in silent/gaming mode.

>GOG
How in the fuck can you justify telling people to avoid this? It's completely DRM free.

>qbittorrent
This is literally the best torrent client available right now. It's lightweight and foss, so I'm not sure what you think is wrong with this.

It looks slightly better the it has fuck all functionality.
There are no settings menus or anything so everything needs to be done through config files.
If you're really autistic about your anime then use it, otherwise stick to mpc-hc.

So for me, clearly not. Though I realize >>54493425 was probably talking about Windows.

Plus, MPC-HC appears to look like ass ootb. Seriously, what the fuck?

potplayer (kmpplayer)

it always has some setting for your every need. And codecs were always bundled, while all other players required codec packs.
