Ask HN: Looking for a project to volunteer on? (February 2024)
SEEKING VOLUNTEERS: https://letsblock.it - https://github.com/letsblockit/letsblockit/
A companion project for uBlockOrigin that curates a corpus of content blocking templates, and provides the server to create you personal list of content blocking rules. The official instance just hit 800 active lists and a lot of template suggestions have been filed recently.
The easiest way to contribute is to create new templates, fix or extend existing ones. You need to learn the uBlockOrigin syntax and how to properly target the right elements, happy to mentor! See recent PRs for examples and https://github.com/letsblockit/letsblockit/blob/main/data/fi... for documentation.
The server itself is built with Go and HTMX, it's pretty low-maintenance, but there's interesting improvements if you want to toy with it (need to open issues for these).

I use a combination of:
- https://letsblock.it/ and Ublock Origin
- The Unhook plugin for Firefox
- Blocking channels on my YouTube account when I see something inappropriate
- Adguard Home also blocks certain channels
to try to moderate the YouTube content for my kids. It's not perfect, but it does get rid of a lot of garbage (like YouTube Shorts).

Show HN: uBlock Origin filters to remove distractions
You should submit these rules to https://letsblock.it ! AFAIK their distractions rules really only cover YouTube

Some veteran YouTube staff think Shorts might ruin YouTube
They're horrible.
Luckily you can use ublock origin and letsblockit, or other browser plugins, to completely erase them from YouTube.

Ask HN: What cool software utilities have you created?
https://letsblock.it : it allows you to create your own content blocking rule list from a corpus or community-maintained templates. It allows you to hide pinterest and stackoverflow clones from search results, remove shorts and upcoming streams from youtube, and many more. The project is now two years old and sustaining a slow but steady growth with an active community.

Where do you all get your DNS block lists from? Is there a public forum that has a list of them?
They are all here, sortable by syntaxe or software: https://filterlists.com/
- Blocking percentage is relatively low. Is it same for everyone or am i missing something?

App that detects shorts-format content overconsumption
1) I deleted youtube and similar apps from my phone 2) Switched default browser to firefox, and installed the uBlock origin extension 3) Searched for filter lists on https://filterlists.com/ that block YT shorts, YT recommendations etc., even hide the "Shorts" button.
- Are there any third party filter lists worth importing into uBlock?

You 100% do not need 3 adblockers. uBlock Origin with sufficient filters and the right blocking mode is all you need.

Based on various scientific studies, it takes at least 10-15 minutes for programmer to get back into the "zone" after an interruption. There are interesting resumption strategies for interrupted programming tasks.

Blocklist Syntax
You can just go to FilterLists and choose Pi-hole in the software column to see hundreds of options. Hell, if someone doesn't want to do any digging at all, they can even use the default aggregated blocklists from a service like Mullvad straight from their Github repository and call it a day. The whole thing is ridiculous. I don't get why anyone would limit themselves to one list on a flexible platform like Pi-hole, where they can easily pick a few carefully maintained lists and literally have the software aggregate those sources for them. The notion that Pi-hole isn't flexible is insane too, with regex easily filling in for AdBlock Plus syntax and the like.
What are some alternatives?

The Blocklist Project - These lists were created because the founder of the project wanted something with a little more control over what is being blocked. Many lists out there are all or nothing. We set out to create lists with more control over what is being blocked and believe that we have accomplished that.
