Ah, 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.

FWIW uBlock Origin Lite (the MV3 version of uBlock Origin) seems pretty much just as good, at least to me. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ublock-origin-lite/... I don't use a ton of custom filters o

IIRC Finder has an option to delete files from the Trash 30 days after they're put there. I just enable that option and forget about the Trash completely.

I work at Automattic, but not on Jetpack Search. I can see internally that you've already written to our support staff, and they in turn have our JPS engineers looking into this. We should have an answer for you soon.
