I don’t have anything to contribute, just wanted to say thanks.
Happy to share the resources :)
Wow the one for the annoying app spam is great! Thanks for that! So many times I looked up something to get annoyed with their stupid “oh no we are a web forum but you have to install our app so we make more moneeee” message
Classic enshitification
I have a couple that I found for youtube that block the cards on top of videos, and the little info things in the corners.
youtube.com##.html5-endscreen-content

I recommend consulting this website to find the filters you need: https://filterlists.com/
Mine are all super specific to sites I use and various elements of them I hate.
Just little things that I don’t want to see. “Score” gets blocked on Reddit. Don’t have a problem with the voting, but the numbers are just distracting to me.
For a similar example, I tend to go out of my way to create filters that block random visual ratings for media. Like when you search for a movie and get the IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes scores without having asked for them.
Not that I have a problem with ratings in general, it’s that they’re effectively opinions, and when I want to hear opinions on media, I’ll go look for them. I really don’t like looking up something about a show or movie I enjoy and see a giant visual indicator “HEY PEOPLE HATE THIS”, or vise versa. Or you’re just going to OpenSubtitles or a meta data site to get something and have to be reminded how the internet feels about this thing.
One odd stand out is Sonarr/Radarr. I can’t create a filter for those search results, because they’re not elements on the page apparently, and there’s no setting to turn it off.
I didn’t know this was possible, god damn I would love it if there was an add-on specifically for stuff like this, which you could then toggle independently of adblocker.
There is. Install ViolentMonkey (an open source Userscript Manager) then install Userscripts of your choice -here’s a few for for Reddit.
Sinkit for Reddit does the job on iPhones. It isn’t Apollo, but it makes the web interface usable.
Does the old.reddit redirect work? I installed sinkit to try it out but it still loads the mobile interface even with redirect toggled on.
Edit: Nevermind, it worked after restarting. Thanks for the recommendation.
NoCoin filter. Blocks cryptominers on websites. Not sure if it still works or if it’s needed, I think it’s already included on another filter but also not sure.
There’s one for twitch.tv called twitchadsolutons
twitter.com##*[aria-label="Timeline: Trending now"]
If you use Twitter still, this blocks the sidebar on the right that shows whats Trending when you’re on your main timeline.
I use AdGuard’s premium apps but these should work just fine in browser based adblockers:
- Empty Padding Remover: Extremely useful on tablet and phones; can save some space on desktop.
- I don’t want to download your browser: removes many prompts to download Chrome, Edge, etc.
- Browse Websites Without Logging In: Does what the name implies.
- Staying On The Phone Browser: removes most nags to download apps or companion apps for a “better experience”.
Is there a ‘proxy’ docker or application I can run that I can use for ublock that acts as a gateway so I could use its awesomeness on every device without configuring them?
I’m aware of Pihole but these additions look amazing and are obviously not dns based ?
I toggle all the lists and add on steven black hosts list filters
