I've switched from Adblock Plus to µBlock and there's been a significant difference in performance. I'm a huge fan and much simpler to use.
Nice. I’ve been having some issues with Adblock breaking a lot of websites, so I guess I’ll give this a try.
I like the fact that it doesn't make exceptions for sites that fit "Acceptable ads criteria", I'm looking at you, Adblock plus.
Does it have something equivalent to Adblock's element hiding helper? I'm using it a lot to hide useless (to me) parts of websites or ads in disguise. Alternatively, is there a FF extension similar to it? Thanks.
If it's not in the Mozilla directory, install from GitHub: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases
It can do element hiding. Right-click any element and select "Block Element".

"UBlock cannot be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 35.0"
That was trying with version 0.8.6.0.
unfortunately all my machines are now on FF 35

That's odd. Both 0.8.6.0 and 0.8.5.7 work for me on FF 35. And they allow up to FF 39: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/blob/master/platform/firef...
