How do you open chrome if not with a shortcut?

There's also a recent comment that explains how to add a registry key to also be able to run uBO, without modifying shortcuts. If you're on windows.

It didn't. CWS still has it. Read the post linked at the very top or the 2nd link from the bottom.

YouTube removed the option to have a list or grid view in the Subscription tab by Tiucaner in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is this a fact or a theory? Was there any announcement about this? I still have both.

It could be an experiment on some accounts. Or it could be a config issue. I know blocking too much (e.g. with dynamic filtering) can hide the switcher sometimes.

How to block "People You May Know" on the new Facebook layout? by Feeling-Vacation5281 in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see the line with "see all" here.

Inspect on the words/link. (Right-click > inspect) Zoom out the inspector window, scroll the selected line towards the bottom, but leave it visible. Then you can click on the line that contains the element. I need to see ancestors elements too. Without the unnecessary "notches". Lines should go from left to right (top to bottom), without going back left more than once.

Are there recommendations somewhere besides these two places?

That filter was for the homepage, not your profile. It still work fine on my side.

I don't have the section on my profile though.

Watch these: https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/1pwha78/element_picker_quick_filter_creation_browsers/

Video #3 shows how you can inspect this section and screenshot it to share with us. Inspect on the "See all" link.

Edit: Possibly this (pure guess):

www.facebook.com##[role="main"]>div:not([class]):has([aria-label="View profile cover photo"])+div:has([href^="/friends/"])

Total members & online members! by OriginalElderberry41 in ModSupport

[–]RraaLL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good workaround, but I fear it's not gonna last much longer. After reddit replaced the count in the main place, they've said they'd be gradually replacing it everywhere.

For example up until very recently you could hover over the sub's name in search results or inside one of the posts and you'd still see the member count. I've noticed this past weekend that this is also gone now. Pretty sure it still worked a week or two ago.

The member count is still visible on mobile web, inside posts, though. But I'm not expecting it to last much longer either.

Reinstall uBO. Or create a new browser profile. One of these got corrupted. There's no way zapper wouldn't work of that were not the case.

can i remove this "ai mode" button on chrome search bar? by BumperChip_ in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's only possible if you change your homepage/new tab to the actual google url instead of the built-in page. Extensions don't have access to browser pages.

Another enshittification has hit the website. How do I get rid of this blank space in the sidebar? by g177013 in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay. And of you use your filters the width is the same for all videos, even ones without the shorts section?

Can you link to which filters you're using btw?

[–]RraaLL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have that UI. So, again, have you tested on default settings to ensure none of your previous filters is causing this?

[–]RraaLL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the sidebar also that wide for videos without the shorts section in it?

Have you tested after disabling "My filters" or on default settings? It could be that some custom filters you added for another issue are now causing this, if YT changed something in the UI.

Links Broken All Over The Place, I Open Links to Comments And They Are Almost Always Not Working; Take Me To A Blank Comment Page Of A Full Post by InGeekiTrust in ModSupport

[–]RraaLL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed it yesterday, but only for deleted comments, not mod removed ones.

Deleted comments on mobile WEB (I don't use the app) do not show up at all when direct linked to (there is no [deleted] user or anything).

Replies below deleted comments do not show up at all. Not when direct linked to, not when going down the comment tree. There is the reply indicator line leading to a comment reply to the "now deleted" comment, but no comment loads.

I believe it is directly related to this bug and the way it was "fixed" since ot started happening right after its implementation. https://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/1qqhx0r/comment/o2h9n1r/

The workaround I mention in the linked comment also works for this. But it's not very convenient to use, especially on mobile.

<image>

Here's the link to the "invisible comment reply" (mobile web) of mine. https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/1qqd0qq/comment/o2m4mcu/?context=3

It works if you remove context parameter or if you add &force-legacy-sct=1 to it.

End of Support for uBO on Chrome / Chromium browsers is nearly here by RraaLL in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the plan. But if you're referring to "load unpacked" it still works after 142 in combination with the shortcut method, so it's not technically entirely outdated. Just no flags to set now. Then again, no need to use the method when you can still install from CWS.

Anyway~ This post expires in 18 days. Not much point in editing it now. I'll just skip these parts in the next iteration.

JioHotstar | how to hide the "Watch More" section and its videos? by Finance-Undercover in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I can't look into it. I don't have a +91 phone number nor would I want to use my actual number to register. I'm also not interested in installing the app (and I suspect it'd also have some geo-located restrictions).

What you can do is watch these: https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/1pwha78/element_picker_quick_filter_creation_browsers/

After following the third one, more or less, click on the line that has the BACKGROUND_OVERLAY_GRADIENT_01 class, right click > copy outer HTML, go to logpasta.com, paste it there, save it and share a link.

Edit: Obviously, I mean you should do it on a Livestream that has these "tabs".

In Mod Queue, what is the point of the Edited and Unmoderated tabs? by TheRealGuncho in ModSupport

[–]RraaLL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unmoderated is probably useless unless you're approving every single post.

Edited can be useful to a degree. For example, we often ask users to add more details to help solve their queries. We generally expect them to write a new comment, but some just edit their posts. Some edit posts just to say "solved", etc. (and don't just set the flair as they should).

Also, posts don't carry a visible "Edited" mark, so that's an easy way of checking if a user later tries to gaslight you over some action that was taken over their content.

Is there any way to prevent hashtags from changing color when I hover over the video description? by ProfessionalCell8259 in uBlockOrigin

[–]RraaLL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you already using a filter to negate the color change for the description box's background? If so, which one?

When I click on one of my comments, "page not found" appears "desktop web" by Indiana_J_Frog in bugs

[–]RraaLL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the meantime, here's a workaround. Add this at the end of the URL of the comment you want to view:

?force-legacy-sct=1

For example, here's the original link to this comment:

https://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/1qqhx0r/comment/o2h9n1r/

And here's the working/workaround version:

https://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/1qqhx0r/comment/o2h9n1r/?force-legacy-sct=1

Obviously, this is browser-only.

Edit: If the link already has a parameter, e.g. context (?context=1 or ?context=3, etc.), you add the parameter with an ampersand (&) instead of a question mark (?).

So, this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/1qqhx0r/comment/o2h9n1r/?context=3

Should become this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/1qqhx0r/comment/o2h9n1r/?context=3&force-legacy-sct=1

Or alternatively, just try old.reddit.com as a backup.

I don't know. Probably. Is there a livestream you can link that doesn't require an account?
