I just use uBlock Origin in Chrome, and for Twitch since they implemented ads differently, there is a "TTV Ad-block" extension that's open on Github, works fine for the new ads.
pi.hole, ublock origin + umatrix combo in all my browsers. No ads anywhere, and the shitty animated crap on the sides of this site never get eye time with me. Who tf animates ads in 2020? What is this? 1995 macromedia flash?
I do not use any ad blocker. As a website author myself, I understand that many websites rely on advertising to survive, so that I keep relevant advertisements loaded and visible.

Yeah the clouvider ad is the tackiest of them all imo, way too siezure-inducing lol

We're not gonna get rid of anybody. We're gonna stick together, just like it used to be. When you side with a man, you stay with him. And if you can't do that, you're like some animal, you're finished. We're finished. All of us.
Laptop: Brave (separate profile) with umatrix + ublock origin. 30 seconds, done. I haven't seen an ad on that profile setup in years. Have complicated setups for the mobile devices but on "desktop" it's easy.

If you want to block more than ads, try umatrix. It gives you much more control over which connection and resource to allow.
My mobile internet is still in 2000 era, so disabling all the third party resources for eye candy reasons lets me browse the internet in saner way.
Let me take this opportunity to tell you that how much I hate LES right sidebar circus. Just because I want to support site-owner by watching ads doesn't mean I should be bombed with all those circus-light. Ads should be considered as site's content too and they should be monitored just as threads.
I wouldn't say it's abandoned. I would say dev is taking a break (may be a long one). Gorhill does great job on uBlock origin, so I can imagine he doesn't have time to deal with all the bullshit that comes with open-source project. I am totally happy with current state of uMatrix, I don't require any new feature from it, also I don't face any breaking bugs. Ads/Tracker is avoided with other ext/dns but as long as uMatrix provides me finer control, I am satisfied with it being closed.

As a marketer, that's what one aspires: Mindshare- people talking about the Ad. Followed by (hopeully) clickthroughs that convert.
Back to the topic- using Pocket more and more and liking it. With Adblock Plus and Privacy Badger turned on.
Also like the reader mode in Safari.. not all sites support it though
Like the combination... Here's what I am reading on Pocket

Did you just mansplain marketing to me? /s
I did not know the meaning of that word mansplain. Had to look it up . Now makes me wonder who is mansplaining who?
verb (used with or without object)
(of a man) to comment on or explain something to a woman in a condescending, overconfident, and often inaccurate or >oversimplified manner: He mansplained to her about female friendships.
to comment on or explain something to someone in such a way: I know some women who are guilty of mansplaining.

NextDNS at the router level, AdGuard on my Macs (mostly to block YouTube ads, otherwise it’s pretty redundant), and AdGuard on my mobile devices.

Umatrix is the bees knees.
For me, Adblocking was just a stayin afloat strategy, in the era of very limited speed+monthly-quota mobile data.
Now it's just a default strategy to cut pageload bloat by 30-80%
