Yes that works, and you can also use something like URLCheck and just drop that path

Searx will show Lemmy results, at least on some Searx instances.
Pretty decent article here

And there is https://filterlists.com/ which is a searchable index of lists. If you use uBlockOrigin you can add lists directly from fliterlists.com otherwise it provides links to Github etc.
I think people conflate it with the MIT blackjack team
Indeed, that is just an ad blocker. I looked at their github and it hasn’t been updated in 7 years.
For good basic ad blocking you might want to try something like https://controld.com/free-dns which works well. No app required, just set it in your DNS on Android.
If you want more finetuning look at the app https://www.rethinkdns.com/
For bypassing pay walls you want something like Cromite (Chromium) or better Firefox, or a privacy fork like Mull.
Honest question. Which ones? On mobile uBlock Origin/ Firefox and Cromite with easy list etc. don’t seem to have a problem with it. Mulch will hit the pay wall, but that doesn’t have ad blocking.
Or different browsers. Wired is soft paywall, iirc 5 articles a month. Like you said, super easy
It is unfortunate, buy we are giving our data freely, as we did on Spezzit. IMHO it would be great to block efforts to monetize Lemmy by ai, but that is not what we signed up for.
Lemmy is neither private, nor closed. It’s just the way it works.
Contributing in an open forum means the data will get harvested. If it closed there will be fewer views, open is what we have now.
Companies will train on what we post, we are not giving that (directly) to a centralized service though. To me that compromise is enough.
True, exploding.heads would also work. Hopefully not what op is looking for though
I like Liftoff, but have issues with duplicate posts, blocking communities, and something like ‘you aren’t logged into X, login to comment’ when I am actually logged in. Liftoff and Jerboa both get better with each release though, and the releases are fast.
