Pro Free and open source

Licensed with a gplv3 license.

AdBlocker Ultimate works on Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer, Safari and Yandex.Browser.
Pro No acceptable ads
Unlike other adblockers, AdBlocker Ultimate doesn't have any whitelisted websites, ad networks or advertising agencies.
Pro Avoids awful looping problems on Firefox one sees with Adblock Plus and uBlock
Pro Pins the video to a corner of the screen if you scroll down
With this feature you can read the entire page without ever losing sight of the video.
Pro Control the volume with the mouse wheel anytime the cursor is over the player
This is especially handy in videos where there's a lot of dynamic in volume levels, unlike the slider at the bottom you can raise or lower it almost before you're finished forming the thought to do so. It also allows you to set a default start volume for all videos instead of the usual 100%.
Pro Specify your preferred resolutions
Ever had a network-heavy process running while watching YouTube and had the site start loading videos at a grainy resolution instead of taking an extra few seconds to buffer adequately at a higher one? Not anymore with this extension! You can set up to four resolutions in order of preference and it will ensure that if any are available for that video it will use them rather than adapt.
Cons
Con Just a browser addon
It is just a browser addon so it will only work with the supported browsers and you have to install it for all browsers separately.
Con Element hiding helper has occasional hiccups.
Con Memory hog that gets worse the longer it runs
Happened with 64-Bit Firefox 62.0.3 running on Desktop PC with 64-Bit Windows 10 Pro with 8GB of RAM.
Con Slow
Like any browser extension it slows down your browser.
