do you know how to block hostnames ?

have you ever blocked a hostname? a single one even?

I've only got the generic Dissenter adblock for Dissenter

99.9% of the time

the other 0.01% of the time I use Quick Javascript Switcher

(if I want to view articles behind paywalls, while also blocking adds)

I honestly haven't ever NEEDED to block hostnames

I honestly doubt I ever will

I'll check Chrome to see which extensions I have, BRB

Dunno, I just saw it somewhere

or have you searched through the source code
