µBlock is not an *ad blocker*; it's a general-purpose blocker. µBlock blocks ads through its support of the [Adblock Plus filter syntax](https://adblockplus.org/en/filters). µBlock [extends](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Filter-syntax-extensions) the syntax and is designed to work with custom rules and filters.

_EasyList_, _Peter Lowe's Adservers_, _EasyPrivacy_ are enabled by default when you install µBlock. Many more lists are readily available to block trackers, analytics, and more. Hosts files are also supported.

µBlock will hopefully soon be published on Apple's Safari Extension Gallery. Meanwhile, feel free to grab the [latest version here](https://chrismatic.io/ublock) from µBlock's Safari maintainer.

### Note for all browsers

#### Note for all browsers
|
||||
|
||||
To benefit from µBlock's higher efficiency, it's advised that you don't use other inefficient blockers at the same time (such as AdBlock or Adblock Plus). µBlock will do [as well or better](#blocking) than most popular ad blockers.
