I don't, however you should be aware that there are many open issues and the dev hasn't been active on GitLab for many months. See post #190 above.

I see his activity stated as two days ago: Kevin R.

One bug fix in a very long time ... doesn't seem like much. I'm using Adguard URL Tracking list and Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool lists in µBO.

Lots of German/EU members here. Maybe one of them can help.

I have Adguard for Windows and its browser assistant, but I like to stick with ClearURLs's function.
You mean this setting below?

Correct.

 

[amirr]

I tried, but that did not help with Amazon.de

Update: With Edge Dev version, ClearURLs works correctly at Amazon.de

Make sure that ClearURLs always is the first-installed extension, e.g. then µBO, etc., otherwise it may not function correctly.

@oldschool I did what you said in the stable Edge, and it did work well this time at Amazon.de
But mainly I stick to the Edge Dev.
Thank you.

Adguard's remove URL parameter filter has rules for Amazon with an asterix for country code, so this should work for Amazon.de also.

Spoiler: Amazon.* rules

Just enable this list in Adguard or add it to uBlockOrigin: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/A...aster/filters/filter_17_TrackParam/filter.txt

@Kees1958 Thats part of Stealth Mode which I turned it off. I use ClearURLs instead. Its better.

You can just enable it in uBlock Origin (or AdGuard) under privacy:

And no need for stealth mode in AdGuard, just enable the filter.

A recent post from the developer regarding status of this extension (see issue issue #1023 and related issues).

@Kevin @KevinRoebert · 1 week ago
Maintainer
Hi. Yes, the project is still maintained by me. As already mentioned in other issues, I don't have so much time at the moment. But from February 2022, I have much more time again. At the latest, then I will add the whitelist feature to ClearURLs.
The rules will, of course, be maintained as well. Anyone who wants to help can take an issue and create a merge request for it in the rules repo. I will try to review the MR as soon as possible and merge it into the master.
I am happy about any help, especially with maintaining the already slightly expanded rules catalog.

Also, ClearURLs received very minor update:

Is this extension something that can be replaced by anything, like uBo filters mentioned or a greasyfork script, or is there really no adequate replacement?

"AdGuard URL Tracking filter" and "Actually Legitimate URL Shortener filter" would be the best alternatives to ClearURLs as far as I am aware. The AdGuard filter is also available in uBlock Origin. The second one I mentioned is by default only available in AdGuard adblocker.

Ok. I have those. I'm also using this script, but was wondering if they all are adequate replacements. It sound like they are, or at least the best I can do. BTW, the "Actually Legitimate URL Shortener filter" can be found here and used in uBO since it's just a txt file

Some opinions on Reddit:

ClearURLs still offers a wider variety of rules compared to the lists mentioned above but if you actually need another extension because of that is questionable in my opinion.

See, that's exactly what I was wondering. I only have four extensions, and I want to keep it that way if possible.
