Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Leadpages

  • HTML Pub tiers (Starter to Business, $10–$49/month) limited to 5–50 pages without optimisation features
  • Full optimisation features (A/B testing, Smart Traffic, heatmaps) only available in Grow tier ($99/month) and above
  • AI credits vary by plan, with Starter limited to 4,000 credits (insufficient for heavy AI usage)
  • All plans include unlimited traffic, but AI credit limitations may restrict heavy use of page generation features
  • 20% savings only apply with annual billing; monthly billing charges full price

uBlock Origin

  • CNAME uncloaking of third-party trackers disguised as first-party is only available on Firefox, because the required DNS API does not exist in Chromium
  • HTML filtering of response bodies requires the webRequest.filterResponseData API, which is only available in Firefox
  • On Chromium-based browsers uBO is not reliably ready at browser launch, so tracker and advertisement payloads can reach already-open tabs before filtering starts
  • Pre-fetch blocking is not reliable on Chromium-based browsers because they give websites precedence over user settings
  • The Chromium build does not use the WebAssembly filtering code paths, because the extra manifest permission would create friction publishing to the Chrome Web Store
  • LZ4 storage compression is Firefox only, and on Chromium in incognito mode IndexedDB resets, so uBO launches with out-of-date filter lists
