  • UBO's url cleaner filter lists are terrible
    3 projects | /r/uBlockOrigin | 5 Jul 2023
    Keep in mind that neither of those lists are default lists and neither are maintained by the uBlock Origin team. Issues with those lists should be reported to their maintainers: - AdGuard URL Tracking Protection: https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardFilters/issues - Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163
  • Glitch where opening youtube videos causes screens to go white and any open pdf files to go black
    1 project | /r/firefox | 25 May 2023
    Also, DDG Privacy Essentials, Privacy Badger and SmartHTTPS are redundant, you can remove them. (it's a similar story with ClearURLs if you add the Legitimate URL Shortener list to uBlock Origin)
  • Are there any third party filter lists worth importing into uBlock?
    8 projects | /r/PrivacyGuides | 16 May 2023
    ClearURLs for uBO (deletes tracking parameters on links and this solves the problem of Google, Amazon links being too long) Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool (same) I don't care about cookies (deletes the accept cookies screens and makes it look like you didn't answer the question, and some GDPR-compliant websites may interpret this as "So he/she doesn't want any cookies") If you want to explore more uBO filters you can check DandelionSprout's Github Repository
  • The two URL filter lists don't fully clean Amazon.com
    1 project | /r/uBlockOrigin | 7 May 2023
    Also, FYI, ClearURLs for uBo is known to break some websites and even interferes with other similar lists (i.e. Legit URL, AdGuard URL Tracking Protection). If you still want to use this, then please report issues/ask questions at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163
  • Actually Legitimate URL breaks Randalls.com
    1 project | /r/uBlockOrigin | 7 May 2023
    Fixed in https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/commit/48d9f519661d996e1f4d09d33cfced391245c5f4. In the future, please report issues with Legit URL at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163 because: - this isn't an issue with uBo or it's filterlists - it was only luck that I saw this, and Imre (the maintainer) doesn't check Reddit. If you report it there, both of us get notified
  • Link Cleaner: Web app for removing unnecessary parameters and other junk from URLs
    2 projects | /r/InternetIsBeautiful | 6 May 2023
    It's included in some of uBO's filters, but if you want to add more, the main additional filter people are recommending adding is DandelionSprout's LegitimateURLShortener, which makes heavy use of removeparam. DandelionSprout also ported ClearURLs's rules to a uBO filter, although that one is more experimental.
  • How to improve uBlock Origin for maximum privacy?
    2 projects | /r/PrivacyGuides | 17 Apr 2023
    It's not practical to mess with rules manually, uBO comes with many filter lists included that are not enabled by default, enable them if you want to; These lists are more than enough for most users, only add third-party lists if you need them (This is the only one I recommend).
  • Is "Easy Privacy" and "Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server list" needed with Firefox "strict mode"?
    2 projects | /r/uBlockOrigin | 11 Apr 2023
    Ok. If you have any problems, feel free to report them at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163 and DandelionSprout and me will try to help.
  • What is a good redirect checker tool ?
    1 project | /r/privacy | 3 Apr 2023
    if it is gateway redirected (e.g. wait 5 sec. then click a button to destination) then use https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt on ublock origin
  • Website does not open
    4 projects | /r/uBlockOrigin | 27 Mar 2023
    It's fixed in Actually Legitimate URL Shortener list: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/commit/7e6fc4c
