I am going to upset a few people, but as much as I like Raymond Hill (gorhill)'s work on uBlock, I disagree with his views concerning the use of uBlock Origin.

For example, someone is always quick to point out that you shouldn't use Privacy Badger with uBlock. I absolutely disagree.

Does anyone remember Nano Blocker, which acted like a helper to circumvent anti-ad blocking? Privacy Badger may not be designed for this purpose, but for the past 5+ years, it has worked just fine in that capacity.

When everyone tells me, for example, that sometimes YouTube doesn't allow you to block ads or that a paid subscription service doesn't work with uBlock, I laugh, because it works if you add Privacy Badger. While everyone else has been struggling, for over half a decade everything on my end has been sunshine and clear skies.

uBlock Origin Lite is another little annoyance. Raymond Hill doesn't believe you should check all the boxes for all the sources because, supposedly, you'll run into more site breakage. He feels so strongly about this that he added a built-in limit. It's my browser and my experience, and I really should have full control because, honestly, it works better with all the sources enabled.

But Raymond Hill decided to act like Microsoft or Apple and impose his own beliefs on my experience.

Dort hat es nach Update der #uBlock Regeln wieder geklappt.
Ich vermute auch, dass das System zu scharf eingestellt ist und womöglich #Firefox Bashing. Ist bei Euch was bekannt?

🌕 GitHub 專案介紹:將廣告替換為電影《極度空間》(They Live)風格標語的廣告攔截器
➤ 當網路廣告變成了你的思想審查員:以極簡風格實現技術創意
https://github.com/davmlaw/they_live_adblocker
這款名為「They Live Adblocker」的專案是一個基於 uBlock Origin Lite 的趣味性分支版本。它改變了傳統廣告攔截器「直接隱藏」元素的做法,轉而將廣告位置替換為印有 1988 年電影《極度空間》(They Live)中經典標語(如 OBEY、CONSUME、STAY ASLEEP 等)的白色方塊。開發者透過修改原有的美容過濾(cosmetic filtering)機制,在攔截廣告的同時注入 CSS 樣式與隨機文字標語,讓網路瀏覽體驗化身為一場帶有諷刺意味的行為藝術。
+ 這真的是最具備文化諷刺意味的擴充功能了,看著廣告變成「CONSUME」標語,突然覺得現實比電影還荒謬。
+ 技術上來說它僅處理「美容過濾」,對於網路層面直接

Replace Ads with They Live style slogans

A fork of uBlock Origin Lite that, instead of hiding cosmetically-blocked ads, replaces them with white tiles bearing slogans from John Carpenter's 1988 film They Live: OBEY, CONSUME, WATCH TV, SLEEP, SUBMIT, CONFORM, STAY ASLEEP, BUY, WORK, NO INDEPENDENT THOUGHT, DO NOT QUESTION AUTHORITY.

The #lightweight browser #Midori is back with updates.

source: astian.org/midori-browser
#Github: github.com/goastian/midori-des…

If you're looking for a lightweight, RAM-efficient #browser for web #surfing, you can finally turn to Midori again. After several years, it is finally receiving updates. The browser is based on the #Mozilla Firefox engine and can therefore also use #Firefox add-ons. Midori is also available for #Android.

I really liked the #setup dialog for configuring the browser. You can customize the colors and layout of the toolbars however you like.

The included extras are rather sparse. The #VPN didn't work for me because the #login screen got stuck in an endless loop. I'd also recommend turning off the built-in #adBlocker and using uBlock Origin instead.

That said, I'm thrilled to have a very lightweight browser again, precisely because it's fast and uses not much RAM.
