When an ad slips through? You might wanna update/augment those filter lists.
That was the best thing about some of the addons to the old adblock plus addon - you could keep your own list, and the average user was entirely unaware of the extent that they were doing so.
- Yetanfou 7y agoAdding new blocking rules to uBlock (et al) is part and parcel of how to use these extensions, I don't see any difference here compared to adblock+. If you see something you wish to avoid you either right-click it and select 'block element' or you launch the element picker from the toolbar or through a key combination. Use ctrl-click in the picker to create more generic rules on specific class or ID names.
- locknumber110 7y agouBO-style element pickers are a brilliantly user-friendly alternative to manually writing filters. Every content-filter extension on every browser should have one. Even my 80-year-old grandfather is now able to excise ads that slip through the usual filters with precision.
