- Rated 1 out of 5by Castle, a year agoIt's a lie, it blocks all adds except its own, I'm tired of these double standards. If only the "We updated please donate" pop up was a simple small notification up on the corner of the screen, I would have thought about it seriously. If only it happened less than 5 times a week, I would have thought about donating. But if you hijack my entire screen for this (and the focus of my keyboard, which is a mess if you are typing somewhere else), I'm hating on you. I never donated (and never will) because of this. I installed this to NOT see adds, I couldn't care less if the adds are from Adblock or not.
Again, this is THE reason why I never donated anything to this extension, it clearly has no respect for the user.
I believe you think that by asking the same person 10000 times to donate you'll get a better reaction. But most of us adblock users are the opposite, every single time I saw the pop-up I hated this extension a bit more. Today, is the day I go looking for an alternative.Developer response

Its a non-stop annoyance in itself by asking opening a new browser tab asking for money.

Removal of features and constant nagging for subscription has ruined it.

"You were the Chosen One! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them! You were my brother, AdBlock Plus! I loved you."

uninstalled thank youDeveloper response
posted a year agoHi,
We are updating the extension, therefore a popup might appear (it will only happen once per browser/device), but you can simply close it and continue browsing. If you are seeing many payment tabs all at once or encountering the payment page every time you open your browser, please reach out to us via our support form and we'll be happy to assist you: https://help.adblockplus.org/hc/en-us/requests/new. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18525063, a year agoStarted spamming with random "upgrade to premium" new window pop up once every week to two.

- Rated 1 out of 5by noop, a year agoThis doesn't even work properly. Doesn't block ads on twitch AT ALL. Why even use this if it doesn't actually block ads.

Funny, the app to block popups, generating popups that are annoying.

There are free alternatives that do the job better.
Developer claims they're updating the addon though that's the entire problem: every update ends with the browser being hijacked to load a self-promoting ad begging for donations. As I implied, this is a thoroughly pointless addon anyway as others get the job done without begging.Developer response
