7 alternatives to uBlock
gorhill/ublock — uBlock Origin - An efficient blocker for Chromium and Firefox. Fast and lean. (68,721 stars, GPL-3.0, ui, security, integration).
These are the closest projects in the JustClaw-It index that we serve licence-cleared code from, ranked by relevance and by our code-quality score (1–10, the mean over each repo's graded components: completeness, code quality, deployability, reusability, strategic value). JustClaw-It does not serve code from gorhill/ublock itself (licence class: strong-copyleft), so these alternatives are the licence-cleared route.
