I have said this before, will say it again. This can be fully achieved with uBlock and custom filters like the one maintained by quenhus[1] that can block websites across multiple search engines. You don't need to increase the vulnerability surface by installing yet another extension on your browser.

- 3abiton 3y agoIs it domains or just pages?
- speedgoose 3y agoDomains, with a wildcard option for the subdomains.
- bmikaili 3y agoHow do you use ublock to block domains on the fly as you search?
- scotty79 3y agoThis seems to be targeted against copycat spam of known sites. I just want to remove some sites from my results because I hate them.
- mkskm 3y agoYou can generate a filter for that here: https://letsblock.it/filters/search-results https://letsblock.it/filters/search-results
- hnarn 3y agoThe repo you’re linking to seems to itself state that uBlacklist is “more efficient than uBO in this case”
- bcye 3y agoAlmost any blocking extension can be achieved with uBlock, that doesn't make them any less useful: - a dedicated extension offers a better experience when blocking (uBlacklist for it's case certainly does) - having everything in uBlock will disable all blocking, even if you just need some disabled (in this case, you might just want to see all results, but keep blocking tracking + ads) It might still be a good trade-off to just use uBlock for the vuln. surface, but there are good reasons to install another extension.
