0.5.18: Add adblocking and list-management/updating #23

Open TheGoddessInari opened 5 years ago

Could use UX help with this most likely, but want to make this as easy as on APB/UBlock Origin.

If we can integrate uBlock Origin to it...

Extensions aren't supported with electron, but instead there are npm modules that provide similar functionality. The most performant perhaps being Brave's ad-block, but it does introduce a native compilation step for building, which wouldn't matter to end users much, but does make it more complicated to build. At least, I think maybe not all javascript developers would have an appropriate C++ compiler and linker environment already setup.

There's a way to do this better now (thanks to cliqz), but currently the preferences/options UI is getting crowded.
