Chrome AdBlocker

Odds are this question has been asked, but what's the best adblocker for chrome. I don't need all of them gone, but certain ones have to go. These include:

  • The static ads on youtube.com and the ones on the sides of videos. I'm so freaking tired of Bluevision, jollycastle, and ventrix media
  • The sketchy ads on sketchy websites, the ones that say "Mary is only 5 miles away", or "Linda thinks she can beat you at (18+ game)". Really tired of those

If anyone can help me, it'd be much appreciated

Also note: getting another browser really isn't an option for me. I'm on a shared chromebook (no not for school) with almost no available storage or ability to run things in general.

[ANDROID] AdAway vs Goodbye Ads and a some other questions

I'm using AdAway on my Rooted Redmi Note 11 since years and it works fine (at least within all apps) but recently I heard about this app Goodbye Ads in a video about great Shizuku apps. It's with nice Material design (not that important) but also claims to be better. What can you say/suggest? Is Goodbye Ads app hosts based like AdGuard or just changes the DNS like you can do in the Android Settings? Also can I use Goodbye Ads without the Shizuku having to reactivate everything with the phone restart, and instead run it with a proper root privileges?

I'm mostly asking because of how the AdAway works for me. It's probably a wrong configuration on my end but a lot of websites recently (especially in my country maybe other websites) still show damn Ads. I need a better tweaked host lists, etc.? Or an ad blocker app with the ability to block specific elements from the said website like I do on PC but for this I need specific browser app/extension, etc not an Ad Blocking app?

And what about these in-app ads where you have to press a button (it's optional) but in order for the app to do the said button action you have to watch a stupid ad first in order to get the action done. While AdAway is enabled, pressing the button says "There are no ads at the moment, please try again later" so is there any way to pass these annoying ads or wasting my time to watch the ad is mandatory? (I hope the last thing is not a gray area for this subreddit)

If you used Goodbye Ads or AdAway and or any better ROOT based (non VPN) adblocking software, please give me advice/help. Thanks!

Optional ads

I'm playing a game where you get rewards for watching ads, but most of the time when I watch them, it opens the Play Store without me clicking anything, or it's mandatory to open the Play Store, and when I go back to the game I lose the reward. Does anyone know how to prevent this?

Adblock extension on firefox suddenly stopping me from viewing almost any webpage

Adblock extension on firefox suddenly stopping me from viewing almost any webpage

Have only noticed this issue today but basically any recipe website that I've opened redirects to this page with takes me to instructions on how to disable my adblocker and then to refresh to access the content. Only I first paused on page as directed and refreshed, then dis-activated my adblocker and refreshed, and the page will still repeat with this message without allowing me to access the content. I've never seen this before and I have tried to open multiple recipe pages now with the adblocker disabled, and I still get this message. The pages only work if I open them on Edge. Anyone else seen this issue?
