So what's the difference between the two? I installed Plus because that's what I used on Firefox. A little disappointed in the instability so far. It's caused Edge to freeze hard a couple of times. Ended up having to end task on it. Also couldn't select a new list last time i tried (button did nothing). I realize it's a preview, so I'm still excited at the potential!

Cool but I use adguard, blocks ads in all apps at the OS level. Paid product tho.

can it block these damn links that portray themselves to be some kind of news and it goes down a long spiel that turns into an ad. I'm starting to get pretty good at recognizing them but once in awhile I still get fooled.

Love this feature! Thanks, MS!
I deal with some websites that will not function when generic host file edits are in place, but this ad block does not disable any of my websites. I can now peruse Surface Forums on Edge!
Thanks again.
