Prerequisites

  • This is NOT a YouTube, Facebook, Twitch or a shortener/hosting site report. These sites MUST be reported by clicking their respective links.
  • I read and understand the policy about what is a valid filter issue.
  • I verified that this issue is not a duplicate. (Use this button to find out.). Comment in the old issue threads even when they are closed or even if you have a different problem.
  • I did not remove any of the default filter lists, or I have verified that the issue was not caused by removing any of the default lists.
  • I did not enable additional filter lists, or I have verified that the issue still occurs without enabling additional filter lists.
  • I have verified that the issue still exists after using the Complete filtering mode.
  • I have verified that the web browser's built-in content blocker/tracking protection, network wide/DNS blocking, or my VPN is not causing the issue.
  • I have turned off all other extensions and the issue still persists. (exception "Firefox Multi-Account Containers").
  • If this is about a breakage or detection, I have verified that it is caused by uBO Lite and isn't a site or browser issue.
  • I did not answer truthfully to ALL the above checkboxes.

ads

Description

On x.com/home, you get/see the ads. It didn't happen with uBO. But with uBO ads did show up in videos [when swipe up on the video player], then uBOL should most likely too not block ads in videos.?

Other extensions used

None

I don't understand what you mean, so I won't comment more.

Cosmetic filtering is useless if the content loads, isn't that? Does the content actually not load?

Also explain why uBO can't block, i did not enforce cosmetic filters.
