Interestingly, I get a better result with only nextdns profile with hagi pro on iOS 87%, compared to nextdns + iCloud private relay 37%. What gives? Nextdns still handles my requests with private relay enabled, I can see it in the logs of nextdns.
I also use the Firefox focus safari extension.
Score is also slightly less with nextdns and proton vpn at 81%.
I rather liked to iCloud private relay nextdns combo, should i change.
Orion gave me 100%, but that browser isn’t as polished compared to safari on iOS.

93% with Firefox and privacy badger on Windscribe VPN adblocking enabled. 55% with Windscribe disabled.
87 % on mobile, 97 % on the desktop
100% with Firefox for Android and Blokada. 100% with Firefox 117 beta for Windows (advanced tracking protection + uBlock Origin).
100% ublock origin Firefox + NextDNS + privacy bager
79% with firefox with ublock, and pihole dns with stock blocklist
91% on mobile Firefox with ublock origin and adguard dns blocker on my home network.
I have the exact same setup, and I got 80. 🤷♂️
97% with Vivaldi and 87% with Mull +uBlock Origin... That's surprising.
I got 100% in Vivaldi on mobile by going into the settings and selecting "Block trackers and ads" and then selecting every single one of their ad blocking sources (the list was from all different countries). That got me 100% with no addtional add ons.
91% On Firefox with Privacy Badger, Nord VPN, Ghostery, a DNS filter as well.
75% on Mull with Ublock origin... I need an alternative but I like Firefox.
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.
100% with just uBlock Origin
With the inbuild Vivaldi adblocker
Enabled only two filterlists
- https://downloads.vivaldi.com/easylist/easylist-current.txt
- https://github.com/StUser4pda/filtrite/releases/latest/download/bromite-4pda.txt
Apart other 2 for blocking cookie advices.
95% - Firefox + Privacy Badger + Ublock Origin + VPN.
The sites that are "not blocked" are sites I've specifically allowed because I use them.
88% brave android, then adjusted my nextdns deny list , now 100% 😁😁 peeps on adguard, move to nextdns. adguard owned by Russians so I'm told.
