there is a need for technical verification, #560, an evaluation based on sentiment is not enough for me. |

Are sites that load tons of ads and trackers and give scores based on the amount that is blocked enough? If so, I can conduct a test. Maybe it's the blocklists' fault, but the embedded adblock plus is a absolutely not better than ublock origin. It fails to block many ads. I suggest you install ublock and browse all the settings. Ublock doesn't only block ads, it can block anything with proper filter. Not only that, but the region-specific filter that I have added is also able to mark "local" sites with censorship in the search page. ([Beware that this site contains censored media.]) |

no, the information is not visible in any way at present.
I never said that.
I do not doubt it. |

Sorry if my "tone" wasn't appropriate.
Can you elaborate please? Is this not credible? The mechanism seems to be accurate and it's open source.
You mentioned in the linked issue that the custom adblock plus is probably better than Ublock because it can block worker scripts. I'm not sure if Ublock can block them, but it would be too much of an important lacking, for a very popular project, to not implement it. As for an example, please see https://webtor.io . |

no, don't worry, I never thought that.
I mean there is no summary panel with what has been blocked.
is obviously a personal opinion.
"probably" precisely.
ublock cannot do anything about it, it is not supported by chromium at all. |

uBlock would be better. |

I just discover this filter. It will not dectet adblock by any site. And it will block all the ads.
https://filters.adtidy.org/extension/android-content-blocker/filters/2.txt It works like a charm |

Adblocking is still detected on some websites. |

It's not a miracle. But it works on 95% of sites. Almost balanced with UBlock. Enough for me not to use Ublock as an extension and take advantage of what this Chromite browser gives us |

For me it works worse than the default easylist filters, it is detected on many websites. I guess it depends on the websites you use. |

We all know that Adblock Plus isn't much effective. The default blocklists are also not enough.
But Brave's is relatively good and supports the Ublock Origin syntax. It doesn't require the extensions API either.
