Won't speak for anyone else but I won't install any extensions. The stores don't have basically any disclosure of what they're doing or what permissions they have.
Also they're used for fingerprinting.
No uBO? No Adblocker at all?
uBo is for chumps. Pros use AdGuard on their network 😉
Yeah an extension is no more trustworthy than the source providing it, network level adblock which you can monitor completely is probably the correct route
