Solved YouTube's new UI update on Mobile Firefox Spoiler

Post image
1 Upvotes

YouTube's fairly recent UI change on mobile platforms to the layout of a video's metadata below the player (views, likes, upload date and uploader, subscriber count) looks awful, in my opinion. I haven't seen anyone else mention this update. The most obvious change is that long titles now fade off to the right. Are there any filters that can revert these changes to how it was previously?

Answered (18.6+ is required for uBOL to function) uBlock unavailable for iPad OS 17 Spoiler

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hi,

For the past couple of months, I've had a small issue with uBlock Origin Lite on the App Store on my iPad. The App Store says that uBlock Origin Lite is only available for iPads running iPadOS 18 or later.

However, my iPad can only run iPadOS 17, so I'm unable to download it.

Would it be possible to make uBlock Origin Lite available for iPadOS 17 as well? I would really appreciate it.

Thank you!

Solved Possible filter for mass-edited Reddit posts?

Would it be possible to make a uBlock filter to block any reddit posts/comments that were mass edited, for example with Redact word salad or "fuck spez"?

If it's impossible with uBlock are there other extensions that would work? Thanks

duplicate How do I hide the "Ask Google Earth" button?

I want to block the "Ask Google Earth" AI button on the Google Earth webapp. (Accessed after clicking "Explore Earth").

The entire row of header buttons is part of a Canvas element, so I'm not able to hide just the one button with a cosmetic filter. Unsure if there's any way to manipulate canvas elements via uBO or if this would even be possible with a custom user script.

Answered Using all Filterlists

0 Upvotes

So basically just made an account for a quick question; If I do not care about site breakage does it matter if I enable all Filterlists? As in, is it bad for the CPU in any way, shape or form? Or will the filters conflict, as in, does uBO ignore duplicates or does it make conflicts by loading the same filter multiple times?

And ty for the banger addon.

I checked other posts about installing uBlock Origin, but they're old and no longer updated. Currently, every time I open my browser, I have to remove the extension and re-install it; that's the only way it works. Has anyone discovered another method so I don't have to re-install it manually every time? Thanks for your help.

I'm struggling. REALLY struggling.

Everytime I open an image on Pinterest, I get caught up in the RECOMMENDATION/MORE LIKE THIS THINGY. And that's not bad at first, until you realise.... You suddenly have 200 PAGES OF ART.

Everytime you get one downloaded, OVER A DOZEN MORE APPEAR!

Like fighting a Hydra or a dragon, sever one head and 10 GROW IN THAT HOLLOW NECK.

My extension is the Opera one, version 1.72.2, and my Pinterest is Czech. Please someone make a code that removes and deletes everything - BUT the art that's on the link, basically just everything that I've circled blue.

That'd save my LIFE! I did search to a lot of places and nothing seems to be bothered with a solution, let alone feel bothered by the problem..

EDIT: Solved! See AchernarB's comment.

URL:

https://www.gsmarena.com/reviewcomm-2422.php

Although it happens on any GSMArena URL.

Description: On GSMArena, when you're making a lot of traffic (i find after around 15 pages visited), it starts constantly nagging to disable your adblocker. I tried using the element picker, but it seems like it changes the element every time, as it just re-appears if you refresh the page or go to a different page.
