        Reddit works fine but i don't have any social media list active in uadblock. Try using utweaktool to delete any cache and config from UAdblock.

            Hi.

            It says, 'uAdBlock has been deactivated!'. When I disable uAdBlock, the Blocklists total reads as zero. To enable uAdBlock again, I must choose from the blocklist items again.

            Both times, on that tennis website, I saw no message about cookies. 🤔

            BTW - what is 'OPO'?

            How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

              @malditobastardo Hi. That UT Tweak Tool tip worked! I now see the cookies message on that tennis website. Also - Reddit works in Morph with uAdBlock enabled (full blocklist) or disabled. 🙂

                @Opolork you have achieved your goal of using Reddit. Congratulations! 👍. As you proceeded, uAdBlock IS NOW fully deactivated as you can go to REDDIT website and AS you see cookie acceptance paragraph in this tennis website (which is an example).
                uAdBlock is a great tool but you have to do some checks to be sure of the situation you are in (enabled or disabled) and not necessarily rely on the application's message (enabled or disabled) 🤕 : it s been my experience.

                OPO: the One plus One phone.

                  Wait, so you mean if I can see the cookies message on the tennis site - that means uAdBlock is disabled (I found the wording regarding this in an earlier post to be a bit confusing)? But I go to uAdBlock and it says that it's enabled. 🤔

                    @Opolork Yes ! in my experience. If ALL uAdBlock lists were deactivated and after if i want to activate ALL the lists again, if i see cookie acceptance paragraph i say that uAdBlock isn't activated even if this app says it is !
                    Also do tests by yourself to be sure.

                      I did a reboot, hoping that might solve the anomaly. No joy. I still see the tennis web page cookie. In uAdBlock - it has 2 options on the main screen - 'Update uAdBlock' and 'Disable uAdblock' - so it seems that uAdBlock is indeed enabled. I'm at a loss. 🤔

                        If uAdBlock is OFF => then you'll have ads and cookie acceptance
                        That's how you can check it's not messing with your access to Reddit.

                        When uAdBlock is ON => it depends on the list you selected
                        Depending on the list you may find some test website to rely on to validate the actual status of uAdBlock.

                        I don't have such a list, but it might be cool to build a collective one here.
                        And yeah it's a bit complex there is no straight answer.

                          It's confusing that uAdBlock says it's enabled when it's not. What's the cause? Any fix?

                            This is a question to ask on the git(hub/lab) of the app.

                              I just tried Reddit again - it now works fine even with uAdBlock on. 🤔
