I'm using NextDNS CLI filtering with browser adblock; I cannot name which adblock is best, but I only need it to block YouTube ads.
Although, I am running on Ubiquiti hardware.

1Blocker offers a lifetime plan. I think I paid $34 dollars for it (with coupon).I use NextDNS profiles for Mac and iOS. This is the most important one and gives you the first boost to a better and safer internet.
For the adblocker, I find Adguard an electron app, heavy and redundant, especially if you already have a DNS blocker, so I just use Wipr which is the lightest on resources.
Also 1Blocker is very good, as mentioned, but it is a subscription.
I used to buy the previous version of the developer's blocker which was renamed Blocker X or something similar.1Blocker offers a lifetime plan. I think I paid $34 dollars for it (with coupon).
I am not sure where you get that from in regard to Adguard. I start here https://adguard.com/en/privacy.html where it says they do not share or sell any personal data.o I've read the privacy policy of 1Blocker and it looks very good. I also vibe with the other infos they have on their site. But I don't think it's open source, so of course it's a matter of trust again. If we're speaking only legally right now, I have more reasons to trust them than AdGuard, who openly states they may sell your data with your consent, and who also admit to collect your passwords, phone numbers, credit card data, etc.
what are they gonna steal, and give to?
what do they care if im typing here, they can't offer me anything.

but no one is going to break into my home and steal a TV.That’s a bit like saying you don’t care if someone breaks into your house to steal a television, because you don’t have one.
Good for you.
but no one is going to break into my home and steal a TV.
my house is kinda burglar proof and my neighbors dogs won't like strangers creeping about.
im just answering a question asked, what is the best Mac Ad Blocker
since I only use AdGuard on 6 devices, my answer is AdGuard, the green one.
my other visiting this tread might need this advice and move on.
I'm not trying to defend AdGuard here, I don't use the app, but this is Safari's wording and not theirs. Any content blocker software will necessarily need to access the content of the web browser in order to determine what to block and Safari is warning the user about this.Don't just read the first sentence. It literally says "we never disclose, share or sell your data, unless we have your consent". And let me guess, we're clicking on a consent button once we install the app and accept the terms and conditions and confirm we've read the privacy policy, right? Good to know that somewhere else the app states that it is collecting passwords, credit card data and phone numbers.

EDIT: If you're curious to see what AdGuard does, it's open source and you can browse through the source code.
Have you thought about looking into Mullvad VPN or Proton VPN?
Both are open source VPN providers that come with a build-in AdBlock.
Adblockers can be used for different purposes. You are using AdGuard for practical (comfort) reasons, which is to not have ads displayed. This is certainly a feature the best Adblocker needs to have, but the best Adblocker also needs to take care of your privacy, which it certainly does not if it collects or sells your data.
Thank god Safari is warning me about this!
Thanks, will check it out! I haven't gotten into VPNs yet, don't know much about them tbh.
Feel free to ask any question about the benefits of using a VPN.Thanks, will check it out! I haven't gotten into VPNs yet, don't know much about them tbh.
