Another user that faces no choice but to stop using ABP after so many years. Removal of features and constant nagging for subscription has ruined it.

After many years installing it at workplaces and friends, I uninstalled it due to constant ADS about buying premium. "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."

removing after many years of usage as it now spams you with popup opning a tab without my concent or premession trying to get me to buy paid features to block this ad.

the adblock doesn't seem to work anymore. there's an annoying ad for adblock plus premium that keeps coming up when i open a new window after being away for a little while.. and it seems the extension doesn't know how to handle it.
uninstalled thank you

Started spamming with random "upgrade to premium" new window pop up once every week to two.

This doesn't even work properly. Doesn't block ads on twitch AT ALL. Why even use this if it doesn't actually block ads.

You make a name for yourself first then you spam the user to give you money, there are better free alternatives than adblock plus, go with ublock

Uninstalled, this was due to the INCESSANT "your adblock has been updated, please give us money" messages. Funny, the app to block popups, generating popups that are annoying.

Malware. Constantly opening self-promoting tabs for pointless subscription plans.

Malware. Constantly opening self-promoting tabs for pointless subscription plans.

Maliciously opens tabs often to advertise itself, begging user to choose a subscription plan. 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.

blocks ads but also give you so many ads for itself. very rude

No matter what i do...it doesn't work. Am fed up with it. I pay...paid...and nothing

Not working on portable Firefox.
Can't even access options, it just open blank page.

Adblock plus works verry good, but it has ads on is own, defeating the entire reason I got the extensions.

Used to be great, but they're starting to spam me with their ads begging for money as much as the ads they're supposed to be blocking.

Tried it to beat ads on YouTube. Works about 15% of the time. YouTube ads are now almost 2 minutes at times. Very annoying. Will keep searching. Meanwhile, I watch Rumble.

Stops some sites working by making pop ups appear (eg: nosloq.com works when adblock disabled, but fails when enabled), lots of websites have pop-ups it is no longer stopping and you cannot even "select element" to manually block them now".

It's better than nothing, but it is time to find something better - I think they are chasing money now, rather than providing awesome service. Both is ok, but I think they have the balance wrong now.


*** EDIT ***

No, the nosloq.com do not have an anti-ad blocking device in place - other than warning people it can cause issues.

The pop-up is just to let people log-in, but if they don't have an account they just need to click it off - so then can register instead.

If you use the site WITHOUT adblock - it works.

If you have ad block on, the pop-up just re-spawns. It is not a deliberate issue at their end - as when I spoke with them, they say you ARE aware of the problem - but just blamed it on problems with "filters".

The "legal way" to solve the problem here is to correct the filter that makes a single-show login popup, become a relentless re-spawn problem.

I have seen other sites do something similar too - it works fine (without any ads) without you - but if adblock is enabled it just breaks the site.

Z užitečného doplňku se během let stala pračka na peníze neustále somrující o příspěvky.

Když ale nedělá svou práci pořádně a samotný doplněk obsahuje reklamy, ptám se: Proč bych platil za používání doplňku, který nedělá pořádně svou práci a který sám záměrně neblokuje určité reklamy na určitých webech?

Pokud vývojáři nedovedou nic lepšího, než po každém updatu žebrat o příspěvek, a pokud musím po každém updatu ručně nastavovat, aby nezobrazoval žádné reklamy (ve výchozím nastavení jsou totiž povoleny "nerušivé reklamy"), nemá smysl takový doplněk vůbec používat. Vážně. Stáhněte si něco jiného, tohle je odpad.

ABP has become as bad as the ads it blocks. I allow it to auto-update, and the result is always an ABP ad begging for money. Don't these people realize I am busy doing something to force the ad on me? Plus it doesn't keep track of whether I paid them anything. Today I installed it on a new PC, and it FORCED ME to pay $5 (which it said I can a refund, but don't see how to do that; it IS probably worth $5). I see now when I click the ABP icon, I get a small ad at the bottom of that window. It's disgusting. ABP's obnoxious ads will keep me from ever paying them money again -- unless of course they force the issue on yet another new PC someday. I like the ads-blocking, but I hate the constant, obnoxious begging for money. Also, I'm not going to bother researching it, but I am an American, but the charge ($5) was international (I got a credit-card warning). Also, for some reason, it gave me PREMIUM for a while: I don't want it. I turned off the features that seemed linked to PREMIUM.

Не блокирует рекламу яндекса и майл.ру, при этом ещё деньги трясет

HOLA, SOLO PASABA POR AQUÍ PARA ASEGURARME QUE VEAN LO MAL QUE LO ESTÁN HACIENDO. YA NO SIRVEN AL PROPÓSITO ORIGINAL CON EL QUE SE CREO ESTO EN PRIMER LUGAR. VIVA LA PIRATERÍA!!!
