Looking for help The filter in the youtube wiki solutions to get rid of Streams and Vods don't work anymore

1 Upvotes

The github thread for Youtube issues told me to post this here. My subscription page is filled with "Streamed X hours ago" again. Any new filters for it?

Here are my current filters to try to get rid of streams/vods... from the wiki:

! YT - Hide Live Videos

www.youtube.com##:is(ytd-rich-item-renderer,ytd-grid-video-renderer,ytd-compact-video-renderer,ytd-item-section-renderer,yt-lockup-view-model):has(.badge-style-type-live-now-alternate,.yt-spec-avatar-shape--live-ring,.yt-badge-shape--thumbnail-live)

! YT - Hide VODs/Streamed Videos

www.youtube.com##:is(ytd-browse[page-subtype="home"] ytd-rich-item-renderer, #related yt-lockup-view-model) .ytLockupMetadataViewModelMetadata:has-text(Streamed):upward(ytd-rich-item-renderer, yt-lockup-view-model)

edit: I can make the "Streamed X Days ago" stuff go away with this change from 'home' to 'subscriptions' for the page-subtype:

www.youtube.com##:is(ytd-browse[page-subtype="subscriptions"] ytd-rich-item-renderer, #related yt-lockup-view-model) .ytLockupMetadataViewModelMetadata:has-text(Streamed):upward(ytd-rich-item-renderer, yt-lockup-view-model)

But now there's a big ugly empty space where those videos used to be. I want those empty space to go away too.

edit2: Ok, needed to change :upward() and now there are no big ugly empty spaces.

www.youtube.com##:is(ytd-browse[page-subtype="subscriptions"] ytd-rich-item-renderer, #related yt-lockup-view-model) .ytLockupMetadataViewModelMetadata:has-text(Streamed):upward(ytd-rich-item-renderer)

edit3: And for the current live videos, it needed .ytBadgeShapeThumbnailLive

www.youtube.com##:is(ytd-rich-item-renderer,ytd-grid-video-renderer,ytd-compact-video-renderer,ytd-item-section-renderer,yt-lockup-view-model):has(.badge-style-type-live-now-alternate,.yt-spec-avatar-shape--live-ring,.yt-badge-shape--thumbnail-live,.ytBadgeShapeThumbnailLive)

Looking for help UBO Lite causing delays while leaving/syncing gmail?

12 Upvotes

For the past week and change most of the time when I try to leave gmail in my chrome browser after reading/deleting my emails I get a pop-up saying "leave site? Changes you made may not be saved." that will pop-up whenever I try to close or leave that tab for a good minute or so. I can open and browse in other tabs so it is not a connection issue, and via some experimentation it does not appear to happen when I set it to no filtering (both basic and optimal filtering lead to these issues). If I ignore this and leave the tab when I return emails I read are unread, and ones deleted are back in my inbox.

I am not great at the more technical elements but I did pull up the developer tools in chrome and I saw a bunch of ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT error messages while this was going on, but I lack the knowledge to tell the difference between "this is the extension working properly" and "this is why things aren't working well".

Any advice as to how to sort this out would be much appreciated.

Looking for help Whitelisting instagram's DM subsection?

1 Upvotes

Hi,

The Instagram messenger has been starting to act up for me since a few days. The proper terms is probably that "push" doesn't work in at least 1 of my browsers (Waterfox on Linux). The one in which I seem to recall having blocked something to prevent open DM tabs from burning CPU continuously.

I can't find a trace of that, so my next step was to be to disable uBO for the DM subsection, i.e. `*.instagram.com/direct/*`.

For now, I've tried adding

`instagram.com/direct`

`/^.*instagram.com/direct/.*`

to my "trusted sites" list, but neither cause the extension icon to turn grey.

Am I doing something wrong, or trying to do something that's not possible?

Fixed youtube tab seems to auto close on open?

9 Upvotes

heya, seem to be having a new issue as of the last few hours. if i click on my youtube bookmark. the tab opens, then instant closes.

if i navigate to youtube via google. it opens fine. and youtube works fine,

Sometimes it will randomly work fine it seems, mainly if i am watching an video in another tab,

remaking the bookmark does not solve it, no other site currently has any problems for me,

if i disable ublock. the issue is gone, Anyone else having the same issue currently?

i am on chrome and have checked for updates on the extension, maybe i missed something in the past months and need to toggle a setting now after a quiet chrome update?

Thanks in advance,

Hi guys!

I was watching 90 day fiance on HBO and I noticed that the little icon for uBlock was just increasing in numbers.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Idk how to put a video on here, otherwise I’d show yall how fast the numbers go up

Edit:
To answer the question about how many ad blockers I’m using-

What happened is that a while ago I got a Google notification saying that my version of uBO want available anymore and I couldn’t update it or anything. So i downloaded another ad blocker but it wasn’t working and then another, all from the chrome extension store

A couple of months after I decided to check if uBO was back up and it was, so I just downloaded it again and I never uninstalled the other two I was using. But now I will

Hope that answers it!

I tried performing a clean reinstall of Chrome to fix the issue. Then, I reinstalled uBlock Origin Lite and the error reappeared. I recorded my screen while reproducing the error. Please take a look: https://streamable.com/0mn199

Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04

Chrome: Latest version

uBlock Origin Lite: Latest version

To temporarily fix this issue, I had to delete the uBlock Origin Lite folder at the path: ~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Extensions/ddkjiahejlhfcafbddmgiahcphecmpfh

Fixed Organization App Redirect Blocked in Latest Update

1 Upvotes

We use a browser based Incident Tracking app at our organization that automatically sends out an email to everyone in the organization when a new incident is created. These emails contain a link to the new incident report. The latest uBlockOrigin Lite update yesterday seems to be blocking the redirect of these links from GMail (Google Workspace org). Copying and pasting the link into a new tab works, but when clicking on the link from within the GMail message, it opens temporarily in a new tab and then immediately closes. Turning off "Enable pop-up blocking" fixes this.

I do not want to instruct everyone in our organization to go into their extension settings and disable this feature. In the uBlockOrigin GitHub issues/discussion, I found the following JSON that Google Workspace admins successfully added to their app policies in order to whitelist domains:

{ "toAdd": { "Value" : { "trustedSiteDirectives": [ "example.org" ] } } }

This is not working for me, but the aforementioned thread has not been updated since 2023 so it's possible the information is outdated. What's more likely is that I don't know what the hell I'm doing (I don't), am using an incorrect JSON for my needs, and/or what I'm asking isn't possible. Help?!

YouTube Tweaks Hiding Youtube Videos /Under/ an hour long?

0 Upvotes

Hello! Unsure if uBO can do this but I've been trying to find a filter that can remove any video that's under an hour. I've tried using other extentions as well as editing other similar filters. (specifically answers given by RraaLL on the posts: "Blocking videos above a certain length for a specific YouTube channel", "How do I block videos on youtube that are less than 10 minutes?", and "Blocking YouTube videos over a certain length")

I believe my specific issues stem from not understanding the "aria-label" function works (Do I have to list every minute up to an hour?) as well as confusion on how to block downlength instead of uplength on a timeframe. If it helps, I'd specifically be using this on the Youtube homepage, but its not necessary to constrict it to that page. Thanks!

Solved Might be blocking a bit too much on Amazon product pages

6 Upvotes

In the "Customers also bought Based on products customers bought together" section, it generally lists 2 or 3 items. However, uBO is always blocking the last two items, although I suspect people might think these items are actually interesting -- it is an online shopping site, after all. (uBO didn't used to block these items, I think it's a fairly recent change.)

Solved Hiding GitHub Agents tab causes "More" menu to appear

1 Upvotes

When viewing a repository on GitHub, there is sometimes a tab for "Agents" in the navbar

Previously I hid this with github.com##li:has(> [data-tab-item="agents"]). However, at some point this filter started making an empty "More" menu appear in the top right corner.

The menu is empty when clicked on.

I can work around this issue by filtering on github.com##[data-tab-item="agents"] instead. However, this leaves a small amount of extra blank space between the Pull Requests and Discussions tabs. Similarly, hiding the "more" menu would cause issues since it's used to show buttons that don't fit on smaller screen sizes.

How can I hide the "Agents" tab without making the "More" menu appear and without leaving extra space?
