I've been running it at home for about a month and I find it no less cumbersome to a browser plugin. The whitelists are permanent, and if you think it's blocking something, you can look at the block list log & whitelist. As a last resort you can also disable it temporarily.

You meant to write "no more cumbersome" right?

Unlikely, there's a subtle difference in the connotations of 'no more' and 'no less' in this context.

'No less' is implying they're both bad. It is a subtly ambivalent statement.

Using the phrase 'no less' implies that the former could be more cumbersome than the latter though, which I think was the opposite of his point.
