I've flip-flopped between uBlock and AdGuard for a while now. Generally find AdGuard to be slightly better and has a much nicer UI.

Also has a neat broken site reporting system in it which automatically generates a GitHub issue to fix the filter lists from a simplified form. Automatically prioritises sites via an algorithm, probably their Alexa ranking or something similar.

I've found the issues get fixed pretty quickly too.

They've got an iOS app as well which integrates with the Safari content blocking system.

uBlock or uBlock Origin? They are not the same thing.
