I use the free Adguard DNS server with the private DNS function on my phone. It works well enough for me. I don’t see any reason to get the paid version. Of course I have uBlock Origin, but the DNS ad blocking helps in apps other than my web browser.
Eh, I import thousands of block lists into Unbound and call it a day. I like using apps but don’t like being tracked, so a browser extension just won’t cut it for me.
I’m pretty sure Adguard is more than just a browser extension. They have an app for many different OSs, which I think makes setting up their DNS ad blocking on your devices easier and simpler. There’s also Adguard Home, which is similar to pi-hole, if you want to self host a DNS ad blocker.

Why would you purchase a license of Adguard when ublock origin not only is faster and better, but it’s also free.
I can’t even understand the concept of purchasing a license for a browser extension.

They also offer a VPN.
So you aren’t paying just for a browser extension necessarily.
I still use Ublock Origin
With google implementing MV3, Alot of useful extensions that rely on MV2 will no longer work
I use brave browser simply for the extensions I use personally
I only paid $30 for a lifetime licence & feel it’s already worth it for the overall experience
I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt, but you should do some research.
Remember that PiHole exists too, and it’s free. But congrats on improving your overall privacy.
