Question Which Ubo filters 2023 do you use ?

[floalma]

Hi friends,

Spoiler

This is an update to a previous thread here about Ubo filters lists.
These are my UBO filter lists.
Any comments or recommendations are welcome.
Thanks you for your contribution.

Thanks.
I noticed it had been moved to GitFlic.
In the past couple of days, in uBO it looked like it updated automatically to use the GitFlic repository. But a few hours ago, I noticed the filterlist no longer updated, so I installed the filterlist from the new repository and disabled and deleted the old one.

Regarding the move to gitflic.ru, I wondered why.
Someone on Reddit said, it probably also shields from the DMCA takedowns.

Yeah, probably for that reason since it was the same the last time. Since it's been moved to a Russian website now, I guess there will not be such problems anymore unless it bypasses any Russian website's paywall.

BypassPaywallsClean filter list shows as out of date, and its homepage is gone. Cat and mouse game continues.

Update: The subscribe link at yokoffing still works. I simply copied and pasted the updated raw list.

Indeed, as my updated post shows.

The link from filterlists.com is dead.

I am using the default filters from uBO plus smaller custom ones from Yokoffing and Dandelion.

I am also running Medium Mode on uBlock Origin following recommendations from another .

Kees1958 ends his MV2 list by the end of this
year.

Switched from Firefox to Brave. More or less using the same custom filters that I had on uBO.

BTW, this popular adblock testing website has been shutdown. Probably the recent Brave article where they showcased the issue with testing sites like this was the final nail in the coffin for it.
From what I saw, the site creator was always respectful to criticism and tried what he could to fix the issues but those were not enough in the end

I just went to his other tools and he basically archived all of them.
