- Vinnl 1y agoSee the section in the article that starts with: > Sure, there’s uBlock Origin “Lite” now, which does the same thing, right?
- nxtbl 1y agofrom TFA: Filter lists update only when the extension updates, no fetching up to date lists from servers (this is a big one!) No custom filters, so no element picker which allows you to point and zap Many filters are dropped at conversion time due to MV3’s limited filter syntax No strict-blocked pages No per-site switches No dynamic filtering No importing external lists
- aheckler 1y ago> No custom filters, so no element picker which allows you to point and zap > No per-site switches These aren't accurate. My version of uBOL in Chrome (2025.718.1921) has these features.
- ReadCarlBarks 1y agoYou're either not using uBlock Origin Lite or do not know what the "per-site switches" are: https://github.com/gorhill/ublock/wiki/Per-site-switches https://github.com/gorhill/ublock/wiki/Per-site-switches
- aheckler 1y agoAh, so uBOL does have the ability to adjust the blocking level on a per-site basis, which is what I assumed "per-site switches" meant. I see now that the original uBO has/had a more granular level of configuration available. (Which I suspect most folks never used, but still... my bad there.)
