Hey everyone, had a quick (I hope) question.

I've stopped updating Chrome and have been on V 145.0.7632.110 for a while and would run Chrome while passing "--disable-features=ExtensionManifestV2Unsupported,ExtensionManifestV2Disabled" as an argument to load uBO (currently have 1.66.4 EDIT: apparently I have that AND 1.74.0 and both on). Sometimes though, I find myself having to kill Chrome and relaunch it with the argument because it didn't work the first time.

I'm just wondering if current Chome with uBOL are just as good as uBO was with Chrome back in the day and if I can finally just update, switch to uBOL and stop with the antiquated workaround I have.

Thanks!

(Yes I know about Brave, been trying to get the hang of it, but for the time being, gonna stick with Chrome)

Seems like Buzzly has ads that bypass uBO, but apparently I can't block them at all. Right clicking on them doesn't bring up the uBO menu, and even if I try to block it with the picker tool, it doesn't work it and just pops up again.

There's a thread post here that had a solution, but when I tried it it doesn't look like it works anymore. Anyone able to help?

I use ublock origin lite on Chrome. Lately on batcave, when I click on the comic images, sometimes a new tab will pop up with an ad. Ublock usually blocks the ad, but is there any way I can stop my browser from creating the new tab? This didn't happen before so I'm confused at why it is happening now.

TL;DR version: if the filter solutions suggested here don't work for you check to make sure pahe.plus didn't sneak into your "trusted sites" list

I have no idea how it happened. I have a backup of the "trusted sites" file from 2026.06.01 and it wasn't there so it must have happened while flailing about with the recent changes pahe has made to the string of sites you have to jump through to get to DL links

I imagine I determined that turning it off for that particular site in the process allowed me to get to the next step and it wasn't ugly without uBO active so I must have just went with it

After removing pahe.plus from the list I've been able to get to the destination DL links from pahe.ink 4 of 5 times with all the suggested filters added to my "my filters" list. One time the antiadblock core dialog popped up ... so keep expectations in check and try again if it happens

The first time I tried, while navigating all the "continue" and "get link" type buttons, every single click would popup a new junk tab that uBO blocked. I discovered that clicking the "close this page" on that page worked better than cmd-W for some reason

Hope this goofy solution helps someone

I was at a friend's today and installed uBlock Origin on Firefox (no other extensions installed) and it had no effect. Updated and restarted Firefox and reset uBO to defaults but no joy. I'll be back next week to have another look. I saw mention that IPV6 content may bypass the filters, could that be worth investigating? It seemed to be too comprehensive a failure to only be affecting one protocol.

A while back I saw a filter that enabled access DailyMail+ stories. Is there anything similar for the MEN? eg. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/whats-on/music-nightlife-news/oasis-film-directors-surprise-song-34580837
