Domain names are not always shown in uBlock .8.7.0 and a few ideas for My Rules page

[MikhailTNY]

On this github page, I had to allow several addresses to get the avatars and screenshots to show up and I kept thinking, there was an easier way before by allowing the main domain. Here's a screenshot:

Could uBlock try to list the domain name if it sees subdomain on the list?

Yes, I could just go to the uBlock's My Rules page and manually create the rule for the main domain. That works just as well, I was thinking uBlock might be easier to use if we can do this from the main view.

A few other ideas for the My Rules page:

1. It should have some AI to detect patterns to ask users if they want to collapse several subdomains into a domain filter.
2. It should also sort the list by domain, then subdomain.

This would be very helpful.

It's actually exactly what it does.

Found in the Public Suffix List:

github.io
githubusercontent.com

hmm..then why is githubusercontent.com is not listed in mini matrix UI for this page. Or am i reading something wrong?

Yes. Read carefully information at provided link.

Bottom-line: asking me to treat githubusercontent.com as a domain is like asking me to treat co.uk as a domain.

Yup. Got it.
