And now, it gets worse. My phone screen is so small compared to desktop - a lot of ads render sites unusable (blocking full screen without possibility to close). Thats why I love my Firefox on Android. Having the possibility of running uBlock on my phone makes surfing so fast and painless. Even if chrome performs and renders better in general, having an adblocker makes that void.

This is really bad on Blackberry where the screen is square and your limited real estate is totally taken up by a website's floating menu bar at the top and their ad at the bottom.

uBlock works on Firefox for Android?

It does quite well, actually. It's the single biggest reason I opt for Firefox on my Android devices instead of Chrome.

Yes. As do NoScript and Self-Destructing Cookies.
