Native content blocker doesn't function on some sites

yee

Orion 0.99.126.2-beta on macOS Sonoma, have updated blocklists but some websites' ads not affected, meanwhile uBlock Origin addon can get rid of them as usual, e.g.:

reddit.com

trakt.tv/dashboard

remove ads from these webpages.

0.99.126.2-beta

Sonoma (14)

The content blocker has been made user configurable and the default settings no longer block everything as that led to some sites breaking.

For old.reddit.com, you can add old.reddit.com##.promotedlink to your custom filters and it should bloch those reddit ads:

I couldn't test Trakt as I don't have an account but some blocklist will definitely take care of those ads. See https://help.kagi.com/orion/features/custom-blocklists.html#adding_blocklists for more information.

yee Please steps to reproduce the problem and differences between your uBO and Orion setup.

laiz Thanks for your reply. In fact I've already added some filter lists along side with default ones, but these websites are too stubborn to be cleaned up.
The old.reddit.com##.promotedlink rule doesn't work here, as well.

If you have the time, you could add the lists from uBlock Origin one at a time until you find the one that blocks the ad on trakt.tv https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/tree/master/filters

yee The old.reddit.com##.promotedlink rule doesn't work here, as well.

There is a small bug in the custom filter at the moment and it should be fixed in the next release.

enable native content blocker/tracking protection, open reddit.com/trakt.tv and ads aren't blocked there.
disable native content blocker/tracking protection, enable uBlock Origin and then open the above sites again, ads disappeared.

Found out that native content blocker partially works(blocking 3 requests on trakt.tv), but not complete.

laiz I've added all of uBlock origin and AdGuard filter lists, didn't improve the result.

for uBlock origin the filter list subscriptions are almost the same, embedded list with additional AdGuard/Easylist.

yee How can I reproduce ads on trakt.tv?

Vlad browse https://trakt.tv/discover and scroll down a bit, there're advertising contents embedded in the middle and bottom left corners of the page
