@Vlad do you want me to open a new but report specifically for cosmetic/static filtering not being enabled on uBO until the page is reloaded?
UBlock Origin doesn't work, sometimes
Anatomy5803 My original post describes this exact problem
For some reason it's being ignored, while being a major issue with one of the advertised features. Don't get me wrong, the browser is great but the fact that there is no progress on this issue, not even acknowledgement, is frustrating.

REB00T Not sure why you chose to ignore all the progress that team has made with the browser. There are 2000 open issues on this forum, this is not even the largest one.

The reason we prioritised other things over this one, is that uBO works reasonably well already and there are many other features that users request with much more passion that this one.

Vlad In all fairness, while the team has made absolutely incredible progress (and that should be commended) this is the highest voted bug and uBlock Origin is a popular extension used by many users. While uBO mostly works, the lack of application of cosmetic & static filtering until page reload is unpleasant. Then again, I understand why it's not a high priority for the team and Orion is still currently beta software. Additionally, the built-in content blocker works for most users. I do expect that this bug will eventually be fixed in tandem with other fixes to related extension bugs in a future update.

New user, I'd like to add my voice to the choir. uBlock doesn't filter cosmetic until page refresh. I appreciate that the dev team is small, and Orion otherwise seems lovely, but this is such a pain for me I'm back to Firefox until it's fixed.
guys my ublock origin dosent work at all its show always 0 he block 0 ads like there is no adblock

uBlock Origin (1.58.0 installed from firefox addons) doesn't block requests (aka displaying a # on the uBO icon) when i duckduckgo anything. it blocks requests on firefox release 127.0.2. see screenshots

I read somewhere that Orion recommends turning off the built in ad blocking if you want to use Ublock
uBO on ios doesn't work properly
I noticed similar issues. I think the reason is that Orion on iOS supports fewer Web Extension APIs than it does on desktop (see the list below). As far as I know, uBlock Origin makes heavy use of the webRequest API, and this seems to be mostly unsupported on iOS. So I decided for me to use uBlock Origin only with the Mac version and rely on Orion’s built-in content blocking on iOS.
When using the uBlock Origin browser extension on iPhone or iPad, it is unable to block any ads or trackers on webpages. The displayed interception count always remains at 0. This result is consistent whether downloading the version from Chrome or Firefox's software store.
The Mac version of Orion has average support for Tampermonkey, but fortunately everything works fine when using Violentmonkey. I hope that Orion can better support extensions like uBlock Origin and Tampermonkey, especially on the iPhone and iPad versions.

I have a crash that I can repeat with the latest version of Orion:
- Open Orion (0.99.127.2-beta (WebKit 619.1.1)) with existing tabs in your profile from your last session
- Make sure you have uBlock Origin extension installed (Firefox version, I am running uBlock Origin 1.57.2)
- For some obscure reason having uBlock Origin enabled at the moment, all pages never complete the load (I am not the only one experiencing this, Yum on Discord had it as well)
- I go to Tools > Extensions > Manage Extensions...
- Disable uBlock Origin
- Bam crash
I am attaching the crash log.
I notice that when I re-run Orion, the uBlock Origin is disabled, if I go back to enable it and disable without closing the window, it doesn't crash, so I guess it is related to pages not loading.
Expected: Orion should not crash.
Unrelated or related, I don't know, but pages don't load with uBlock Origin enabled right now. Obviously pages should be loading at all times when there is connectivity.
