This is useful advice but, the frustration is warranted if a user needs to modify a sub-sub-sub menu to undo a default that is not even grammatically correct.
Safari introduced 3rd party ad blocker 7 years ago. If you want to run ad-blocker in 3rd party browser and apps, install and run Adguard Pro from the App Store. That’s been around for at least 5 to 6 years.
If you have access to BBC (UK), there's a 3 part series on the history of EDM. The first episode was shown last week and it touched- quite significantly- on the Detroit scene:
You're probably either not using the right ad-blocker or fail to configure the ad-block properly. If you just want a content-blocker that works in Safari- I find Purify works the best. If you want a full system ad-blocker which works in most apps- NYT, BBC, Chrome though not in the YouTube, Instagram, Twitter apps- it would have to be a DNS based Ad-blocker like Adguard Pro.
Not across the system, though. It only works in Safari. For system ad-blocking, the easiest option is via DNS based Ad-blocker services like Adguard Pro or Adblock (both are paid apps and available on the App Store).
There's also the VPN option. PIA, for example, comes with its own system ad-blocker (MACE) although it's nowhere as good as Adguard Pro (which allows you to use custom DNS server).
It's not just Safari. The only times I really care about ad blocking are using the web with safari and Feedly and watching video. The content blocker also works with web view embedded in Feedly.
I very seldomly watch live ad supported video. I have ad free Hulu. For the two networks that aren't on Hulu - CW and CBS, I watch VOD from them via Plex. Because of the way that the Plex channels work, they skip the ads.
That's not true either. You can definitely save PDF in Evernote on the Mac (btw, there's only the App Store version of Evernote if your discount the web version).
To save PDF into Evernote on the Mac:
- if it's a file- use the share option (right click>Share>Evernote)
- if it's in a browser- in Safari click on share (top right hand corner of the browser) > Evernote. If it's in Chrome, AFAIK, you have to use Evernote Web Clipper (extension) which is also available for Safari.
- Of course, you can also copy/paste or drag and drop PDF into Evernote
I am talking about the feature whereby any app that can print can print directly to Evernote, as a PDF. This feature is very useful, though web clipper and the Sharing extension offer workarounds for some applications.
