What filter lists to use with Ad Block Plus - 05/26/16 07:59 PM
This is something I've read about a lot, and commented on at various places on the web, but I'm still unsure that I've got the right answer. Yes, I have read the docs on the Ad Block web site.
What filters come with Ad Block Plus? What filters are automatically enabled? Which filters conflict with each other? Which or how many filters slow down Firefox? Which are redundant or counterproductive? What is your daily use like?
For my part, I'm always looking for a speedier browser.
I don't know which filters come enabled with my Ad Block Plus, but here are my choices when I open the prefs:
1) AdBlock Warning Removal List (why is this unchecked?)
2) EasyList
3) Malware Domains
4) Fanboy's Social Blocking List
5) EasyPrivacy
AND--How about this?
Just this second, I noticed that on the right side of the Filter Preferences window, there's a thin, blue, vertical, dotted line with flippy triangles on top and bottom. Heh, I never noticed that before, let alone used it.
This would be the wrong place for me to complain about the trend toward "hidden" interface items, thin gray text, and so on.
