    • In UBlock Origin doesn't work, sometimes

      _I_

      I can't believe this issue still exists, four years later after it's been flagged.

      I just tried Orion again. I tried a new profile. I tried a clean install of uBo. The exact same error persists.

      • Ads are shown, and cosmetic filters are not applied, until the page is refreshed.
      • Steps for reproduction: more than ten of us have provided them in this thread. There are in depth text steps. There are videos.

      Fixes to the bug were 'planned for next release' in July of 2023.

      @Vlad said in November 2023 that uBO not blocking ads on page load is new information to him.

      catch-22 replied saying this has been the exact issue since 2021.

      As Anatomy5803 said, this is the highest voted bug in Orion.

      It's 2025, this thread is now derailed with people talking about how uBO doesn't work on the iOS version of Orion. It's still not fixed on the MacOS release after four years.

      We get it - beta, small team, limited resources. But this has been known for a long time. We've all gone out of our way to show different ways to reproduce it.

      I don't think it's crazy to ask if there are plans to address this issue, as it approaches its fifth birthday.

            I am experiencing this with default ad blocking behavior, same as several others have already mentioned. It requires refreshing an open tab to get UBlock to actually work.

              Getting uBlock Origin to work at 100% should have been a priority from the very start

              As good as the internal content blocker is it will never deliver the same flexibility and blocking capability as uBO

              When uBO works as good as it does in Firefox I will make Orion my daily driver browser
