I want to use Ublock but I see lots of folks recommend Ublock Org (original), I am just an everyday light user who would like to eliminate as many advertisements as possible. Thanks

I am a "heavy user" and use uBlock Origin, based upon its popularity and that it's not Adblock Plus. uBlock is not longer supported, it is the older "fork" of what later became uBlock Origin.

uBlock Origin works fine for me for blocking advertisements and it requires less user intervention that Adblock Plus, IMHO.
