How to block banner ads in desktop mail client?

How to block banner ads in desktop mail client?

The first screenshot is of an email newsletter when viewed through the icloud web client. I've got the Adblock chrome extension installed, so there are no ads. The second screenshot is of the same email when viewed via the default macos mail desktop app. How can I replicate the ad blocking I have in the browser version in the desktop app?

Can’t get rid of ads on Cambridge Dictionary website

I use NextDNS on my iPhone and applied a few popular adblocker lists. They’ve been working very well and block most ads on my phone, except recently - Cambridge Dictionary website is still heavily infested with intrusive ads no matter how many filters I applied. No adblocker seems to be able to get rid of them. My phone scored 97 on adblock turtlecute test website. And I get cloudfare verification very often when I browse websites now due to the massive lists of entries I use

Element blocker that actually works on ubuntu chromium/chrome

I'm trying to remove certain eyesore elements from office google calendar tv that is running mini pc ubuntu chromium, but even ublock origin lite fails to keep the elements blocked over a refresh. Or should I just switch to firefox...

Youtube Threatening to Block Videos for using Adblocker?

so In the last few months Youtube has been getting a bunch of updates and one seems to let them know when you are using an adblocker. Lately I have been getting lot's of these pop ups on youtube telling me they can see im using an adblocker and that I should Buy Youtube Premium. but today i get a pop up over my video telling me that I had 3 chances to either turn off my adblocker for youtube or buy youtube premium or they would block video packages from being sent to my IP or something. so I turned off my Adblocker for now but im looking for any advice on how to fix this.

if it matters, Im using Opera GX as my browser and Im using the Opera Adblocker as my adblocker. should I Use a different Adblocker or switch browsers or something?

Tip if you just want to totally ignore youtube/other apps ads with Roku TVs

I realize its more than its worth to me to go all out with network blocking of ads, esp youtube ads for my Roku tvs so i found a simple solution that keeps me from having to listen or see the ads.

It doesnt block the ad, as you still have to wait for it to finish but I dont have to hear nor see anything but a few seconds, all I do is once an ad starts, i mute the tv then hit the option button and push the *up* arrow (EDIT srry i said down by mistake) once to select the "Picture off" selection and then i wait a minute or so and then push the ok button and either hit skip or the ad will already have played through.

Sure its not skipping the ad, i cannot stand ads but i know how ad revenue works so I figure since the ad plays through, youtube still gets paid and I dont have to sit through any of the bs.

Not sure how ACR works but i figure the picture off setting doesnt block what it recognizes since its on the hardware end so youtube thinks the ad was served.

I use this on other apps sometimes but not nearly as much as i do with youtube, their ads are the worst.

*This obviously struck a nerve, i originally posted this to the Roku forum and it got removed within hours. If this is helpful to you pls repost this everywhere its relevant rofl.
