As I understand it, the problem is that it's really not as easy as to simply
"add UBlock Origin". QTWebEngine does not support the same extensions API as
Firefox, Chromium, etc (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=393358,
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-70370,
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-61676). As a result, any "Extensions"
that are available for Falkon basically have to be completely reprogrammed
starting from nothing. QT provides capabilities that make ad blocking possible,
but bear in mind that projects like UBlock Origin, Adblock (Plus), and so on
are major team efforts with multiple contributors that have built up their
capabilities over many years.
