Just saw it today. NoAds was useless for me.
Anyone using it? I just had a look and it seems nice.

Maybe :-\
...or you just throw up a few bucks and buy Ad Muncher which is better than any addon I tried and works for everything :)

I use it with Opera and I must say that it works great. You can't install all the filters ABP has for Firefox, but it's very efficient.

I've been using it for a few weeks now on both portable & desktop versions of Opera. I think it is quite efficient. In preferences there are several lists to choose from (depending on language) & Fanboy's is the default. You can also block trackers if you wish. The preferences are quite customisable in many respects & not only can you pass the 'New York Times' Paywall' with it (whatever that is) apparently it will also block Facebook plug-ins.
It is nice to see an Opera adblocker that works. I recommend it. :thumb:
I also recommend NotScripts (https://addons.opera.com/addons/extensions/?query=NotScripts&top=0) & External Scripts (https://addons.opera.com/addons/extensions/details/external-scripts/1.1/?display=en). :thumb:

I am trying it out now and it seems to be working well. Just successfully updated the block lists so that is not a problem here. I was happily using the fanboy list with stat/tracking anyway and now I do not have to replace the ini and css files every month.

Fanboy is working here as well. Blocks pretty well. :) I'm just too used to easylist. :P
