MailTrackerBlocker VS kill-the-newsletter.com

I typically use the Apple Mail macOS client and it has some built-in proxy feature to block trackers that I recommend using. I also developed the MailTrackerBlocker plugin if that feature doesn’t work for you for some reason (older macOS version, etc).

I was suggest this: https://apparition47.github.io/MailTrackerBlocker is great if you have a DNS ads blocker

From the MailTrackerBlocker website:

I have found MailTrackerBlocker [1] to be useful to block tracking.

Currently, there is a Mail plugin to block them. https://github.com/apparition47/MailTrackerBlocker

I employ Mail Tracker Blocker on macOS Apple Mail and I see that this plug in is blocking something. So, why does Pocket, which is owned by Mozilla, a privacy forward company, have trackers in their "Pocket Hits" newsletter?

I use eero Secure Ad Block alongside Wipr (iOS/Mac), Hush (iOS/Mac), and MailTrackerBlocker (Mac).

If you use Mail on Mac check out this article from Daring Fireball on a tracker blocking plugin. It’s called MailTrackerBlocker and it’s open sourced on GitHub

Completely agree. Like the parent poster, I never subscribe to newsletters and the sites that don't offer good ways to be updated of new content (e.g. RSS feeds) lose me as a visitor.

There are, however, a few email to rss tools, a quick search brings this one as the top reasult: https://github.com/leafac/kill-the-newsletter

Might be a good workaround in case the content on the site is worth it.

Kill the newsletter, for email newsletters

I’m not aware of such a list but this open-source project, kill-the-newsletter, comes to mind. Converts an email newsletter to an RSS feed where you can open new entries in a browser (and can more easily block ads/trackers with an extension like uBlock Origin).
