When legacy Firefox began to support Webex as well as XUL extensions, I did try the Webex version of uBO, but went back to the legacy one later, mainly because again it was easier to use a single version which all of my browsers supported. In those days, I did not yet use uMatrix nor Request Policy, and I do not think that Gorhill had released uM yet. IIRC, uBO at that point worked with all of those browsers, and it was convenient to have an extension which was universally compatible. It wasn't because I was using Pale Moon, though I WAS using Pale Moon some of the time, along with FireFox of one or another of what we call the 'legacy' versions, as well as SeaMonkey. I've used uBO for quite a while, several years anyway, and I began doing so for the more common reasons, in that it was advertised as being easy on resource usage compared to AdBlock Plus, and that ABP had made a deal with some of the devils, and had begun to allow selected ads to be displayed. Good thing that I checked the Moz forum tonight, I reckon. To those of you with more experience than I with uBO is there anything I should be aware of, be cautious about?. So, with that stated.what is a "repo" repository?-and what do you have stored there? 🙂įor reason(s) I have never been able to pinpoint, I find github confusing-confusing enough that I only go there if I absolutely have to. >I have a whole GitHub repo for just that. Basically, that option allows uBO to function in a similar manner to both Request Policy and uMatrix both of which I've been using quite a while and would not get online without (well.prior to my installing uBO). Yes, so I discovered by checking the "I am an advanced user" option because without that checked, any customizing and user-chosen allow/block are awkward at best. >You do have some measure of control as you can allow / deny any aspect of the site or the whole thing to your liking. If you mean the PM forum, I rarely, if ever, visit although now that Tobin (I visited enough to know who he is) is gone, it might be worth visiting more.'-}} >I used Pale Moon for a bit but the whole community aspect of it turned me off, but that's another topic altogether. To those of you with more experience than I with uBO is there anything I should be aware of, be cautious about? I need to test it more but I think I may start using uBO instead of Request Policy and uMatrix and, AdBlock. Then late last night, I thought I might have an idea of what the issue was and was able to test it today and sure enough, checkmarking "I am an advanced user" made the magic happen and now I can easily and quickly block indifividual entries as I'm used to doing in both uMatrix and Request Policy. I figured there was something I was missing (likely something obvious) and that maybe I'd post here and ask. A couple of hours later, curiousity got the better of me and I installed the uBO legacy version in one of my Pale Moon (portable) iterations and fiddled with it a bit but finding it somewhat annoying compared to uMatrix (same author) because the process to block stuff was so clunky. I passed on all the info and links I'd found in a post making a point to note that I'd not used uBO and they were on their own to figure out how it worked. Link to uBlock Legacy for Pale Moon: » /gorhill/uBloc Link to Pale Moon's addons/extensions search for "ublock": » /sear releases ) and then double checking Pale Moon's addons/extension list, I found a link to the uBO Legacy version for Pale Moon:.There was some difficulty finding the Pale Moon uBO and so yesterday I did a bit of searching moving through github (which I always find confusing although I'm not sure why and this link is the general (not PM version) ubo addon: » /gorhill/uBloc I'd recently suggested to someone in another forum that they might find uBO useful although I'd never used it myself-I use uMatrix and Request Policy but had never gotten around to trying uBO.
