PS: I don't use youtube but for what is worth this is my hompage don't Know if differ from yours:

here's the ad obscured but not skipped,wait till the end and the video starts:

Once Orion implements scriptlet support (called advanced js by them), like WebShield or wBlock does like Safari, YouTube ads will be blocked. Also you don't need optimized lists for Orion since I believe each list is a content blocker & advanced js is run in a js file not through content blocking.

The lists you should use could be the default lists in WebShield.

Off the top of my head, these should be enabled by default:
AdGuard Base
AdGuard Tracking
EasyPrivacy

I'm developing WebShield which is an adblocker for Safari, so if you have any questions regarding lists, please lmk. Respectfully, While @yokoffing's suggestions were better than just plain EasyList, Hagezi lists are meant primarily for DNS, have no cosmetic or especially scriptlet rules. You can get far better results by using the above lists as defaults. You don't need the optimized lists either I believe for the Orion implementation.

Anatomy5803 doesn't AG tracking protection include/is based on easy privacy?
aren't the two redundant?
I genuinely ask since I always thought that AG tracking protection has easy privacy inside, also is like 4 times bigger?

the ios optimized filters are what adguard use in they ios app, they have lesser rules and I think speed up the browsing...

with the same set of filterlists i have circa 230000 rules on desktop but circa 98000 on mobile

Anatomy5803 The normal filter lists include all rules, whereas optimised lists include most frequently used rules/domains. Lesser rules leads to fewer processing and better performance.

Scriptlets have nothing to do with optimised lists, since both lists include scriptlets.

chorizo AG Tracking Protection isn't based on EasyPrivacy to my memory. AG Base is based on EasyList, thus you don't need to enable AG Base & EasyList, since AG Base already has EasyList. Optimized lists exist because Safari ContentBlockers have a limit of 160k rules IIRC, and each category is 1 content blocker. Since it seems like Orion is using 1 content blocker for each list, using optimized lists won't matter depending upon what the limit of a WebKit Content Blocker is, or if its the same as Safari, which would be 160k per each list.

@joystmp Yes, that is true that lesser rules leads to fewer processing, but that's only at conversion time, since WebKit-content blocking rules are very efficient & performant since they apply before network load to my memory. Scriptlets would be the only performance issue since they're processed in realtime through javascript.

Scriptlets and cosmetic filtering isn't in Hagezi, that's what I was referring to.
