Adblocker on Pale Moon

I have several browsers on my Toshiba laptop, including the latest Firefox and the latest Pale Moon (a Firefox derivative). I've read that Pale Moon doesn't support Adblocker - and, for this reason, when I tried to install it I was told I couldn't. As a result, I now use Pale Moon very rarely.

The other day I loaded a website on Pale Moon. It was a newspaper site and delivered a rash of pop-ups. I then loaded the same site via Adblock-equipped Firefox and it was free of popups.

Generally, I liked Pale Moon - so is there a way around this problem? Is Pale Moon likely to come with Adblocker in the future? Is there something else (free) I can download.

Any advice appreciated.

And a little logo down in the bottom left saying ABL - works brilliantly. I'm back to Pale Moon.
