            @mihael Yes. See https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7696/is-there-a-method-too-add-block-on-youtube-without-paying/1
            I'm not sure at all, but MAYBE later it would be possible to install scripts in morph to block that with https://gitlab.com/ubports/core/morph-browser/-/merge_requests/527 as it can be done in other browsers like Firefox for example.. or NOT..

              @mihael Aren't YouTube adds inserted directly into the video stream? That would make them difficult to block.

                In fact, i found a solution to read youtube videos in browser without being annoying by consent popup :
                Try opening an embedded youtube video link.

                For example with :

                https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=N351nsAMBg4

                You transform the link in :

                https://youtube.com/embed/N351nsAMBg4

                It should work in most cases

                  a workaround is to use UBdious

                    @beli3ver thanks again to the community for helping keep this going, and thanks for your contributions.

                    As a casual user, is there a simple guide / "recommended" set of blocklists to use? Or maybe a brief summary of the different providers, such as:

                    Energized vs. StevenBlack since they both provide multiple?

                    From another angle, is there any performance negative to just "enabling all" and then if it is blocking too much to dig a bit further?

                    Thanks for any guidance πŸ™‚

                      My bank site login was no longer working because of "enable all" so yes it can have side effects.

                        @rik said in uAdBlock is back again:

                        brief summary of the different providers

                        To have details about lists, you can do some researchs on https://filterlists.com/
                        For example :

                          Since last update of the app I noticed that some sources for my RSS feeds (uRsses / @darkeye ) do not load anymore. In uAdblock currently all 18 filters are applied.

                          Tried to search by domains in the filter overviews provided by the link in the post above (thanks @domubpkm ). Searching for a specific domain did not result in pin pointing the filter causing the blacklisting.

                          Looking for the best and easiest way to whitelist specific domains to allow them as exceptions to uAdblocker in order to allow them to be available in RSS feeds and Morph Browser.

                          Any pointers would be much appreciated. Thanks.
