I've noticed that Orion ships with extra lists and custom rules to achieve 100% on adblock tests.

AdGuard Base and AdGuard Tracking Protection filter are more than enough to achieve 100% on any adblock test.

Moreover, EasyList and EasyPrivacy lists, although popular, are not updated as quickly as they should be. This should give you an idea about the rate of activity and updates in adguard filters

      joystmp With these two installed I am getting everywhere (for example CNN). It also gets only 64% on adblock test?

      Can you verify if this is an Orion problem or adguard problem?

          The 2 filter lists I mentioned are optimized filters (smaller size, while trying to maximise blocking). With just these 2, in Brave + uBO, I am getting 86% blocking.

          I forgot to mention mobile ads filter (optimised). With these 3 enabled, I am getting 95%.

          If I add full version of these 3 lists (just remove _optimized from the url), I get 99% (ads-sg.tiktok.com not blocked).

          Rules count:
          In full version - 180,150 network filters ＋ 82,974 cosmetic filters
          In optimized version - 132,915 network filters ＋ 42,571 cosmetic filters

              Note that AdGuard provides separate filter lists for AdGuard and uBO since the scriptlets syntax for both are different.

                  This seems not to be the case?

                  Happy to run 'optimized' lists, just please be specific what those lists are to achieve 100%?

                      I did not factor in NextDNS running in the background.

                      Optimized lists may not always give 100% result. However, 3 full lists (list1, list2, list3) as shown above are alreadying blocking all except 1, for which I've already created an issue on github.

                      Update: Adguard refused to block ads-sg.tiktok.com since it is not related to ads.

                            It'll be very nice to achieve this kind of content blocking with the ability to manage filters and userscripts on ios.

                              since the update to 1.3.18 (6) (WebKit 8620.2.4.10.7) scriplets in content blocker seem not to work.
                              The Adguard's filterlists that were present as selectable are now disappeared.
                              Is this intended or do I need to open a bug report?

                                I believe this was mistakenly markedDone and I have pinged the team to fix the tags. Scriptlet support is not currently available on either platform but we understand the demand for it and it will be implemented as soon as resources permit the team to do so.

                                    laiz ok then something happened with the adguard rule converter library in this update because adguard's filterlists are no longer effective, the empty spaces leaved by the not loaded ads now are visible
