  • YousList

    Block filter for advertisements, mainly on Korean sites

    Project mention: I have a question regarding the default Korean filter. | /r/uBlockOrigin | 2023-08-14

    From my search, it seems that the original default Korean filter for uBlock Origin was Youslist (https://github.com/yous/YousList/raw/master/youslist.txt) for a long time. However, I found that there was a change to List-KR as the default Korean filter for uBlock Origin in April of last year (https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/commit/ed0f7ae3ce1fbc9445e5c9bca0890fb86ab3d0b9). I'm also curious about the reason behind this change.
