Review Summary
Adblock Fast is praised for being a fast, simple, and lightweight ad blocker that improves browsing speed without complicated settings. Users appreciate that it effectively blocks most ads and trackers without breaking websites or slowing down the browser. However, multiple reviews note its inability to block YouTube ads, limited customization options, and occasional failure to block all site ads. The lack of recent updates may contribute to these issues. Overall, it is a reliable and efficient ad blocker for most purposes except YouTube ad blocking.
