I learned this more than week ago from Yuki but forgot to share here which is, uBlock Origin is adding support for scriptlets like there is in Adguard that can auto-click on cookies notices, auto-click on skip timers, etc.
It's coming to Trusted filter lists first, and later there will be options for users to manually trust whatever list they want.
Good to see Gorhill changing his mind on this because in the past he said he'll never make it available in uBO for security concerns.

Add trusted-source support for privileged scriptlets · gorhill/uBlock@4187633

At the moment, the only filter lists deemed from a "trusted source" are uBO-specific filter lists (i.e. "uBlock filters -- ..."), and the user's own filters from "My fi...

FYI: Kees1958 posted this recently:

For some reason I am limited to around 580 lines to copy at once. This is the reason the old EU-US most used has been deleted, After a mass update (deleting all rules and copying new sorted rules back again), I only showed the first 580 lines. I tried copying, pasting and importing the new batch update, but all methods were limited to around 580 lines.The old Most used EU-US now is labelled MV2. I decided to copy and paste the over 6500 rules in batches of 500. The file in total is only 10KB, so it can't be the large file limitation. When someone knwos a workaround please mail me or explain it by opening an issue.

I have tried uBol a few times in Edge, but the pop-up window never shows (when clicking on the icon). Anyone else having this problem?

Nope. Have you tried uninstall/reinstall? What are your Edge settings & tweaks? Maybe causing some interference?

Does the right-click option work? In the context menu (last option) you can open the developer tools to look for errors.

 

[ForgottenSeer 97327]

@Jan Willy thanks, right clock option worked (I could go the extension settings). I will install again tomorrow and try to find out more.
