I use wefwef.app/Voyager on FF. I don't believe ublock does anything though since its not an Ad based service

Ublock will let you block just about anything, for instance if you're seeing too many posts from a specific instance ex: @leddit.danmark.party, this filter will block the entire instance lemmy.world##.post-listing:has-text(@leddit.danmark.party)

Can’t save comments so replying to save this

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

If you click the 3 vertical dots, it should expand to reveal a star-icon option that'll allow you to save the comment. To view saved comments, click on your username in the upper right, then profile. There should be a 'Saved' tab

One other helpful snippet that'll let you filter out posts that link to wsj, twitter, youtube, etc... lemmy.world##a[href*="wsj.com"]

I'm no ublock expert, but I've mostly tested these filters, so ymmv. If you run into any issues or need to tweak a filter please follow up so we can all share 😀

Ironic. Apps let you save comments lol

I’m using Memmy and I don’t see how to save them

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe that app hasn't included it. Connect for Lemmy has it, though.

Ah thunder does let me save comments

uBlock Origin doesn't do anything in this case, but it's more of a general statement of my browsing setup

I'm using ublock to block large media elements when I'm running low on data :)

I’ve been switching between those two as well. Theres a couple features I prefer on wefwef but in general the memmy app seems smoother
