A lightweight ad blocker that speeds up YouTube, Facebook and every site you use

A lightweight ad blocker uses a small, precise rule set instead of giant filter lists, so it adds almost no memory or CPU overhead. AdOff is ultra-light — a fraction of the size of typical blockers (3–8 MB) — and actually speeds browsing up on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitch, Reddit, Amazon, Google and every other site by cutting ad traffic before it loads.

Why most blockers are heavy

Many popular blockers load filter lists with 80,000+ rules. Every rule is matched against every request, and the lists sit in memory the whole time your browser runs. On low-end machines that means noticeable lag and higher RAM use.

How a small rule set can block just as much

The bulk of ads come from a relatively small number of ad networks. AdOff uses around 130 targeted rules that cover the vast majority of ad traffic, instead of tens of thousands of mostly-redundant ones. Fewer rules, matched faster, with a tiny footprint.

Because ad and tracker requests are blocked before they load, pages render faster and use less network — so the blocker pays for itself in speed.

Lightweight doesn't mean weak

AdOff still does network blocking, cosmetic filtering, video ad neutralization and stealth anti-detection. It's small because it's precise, not because it cuts corners.
