Anyone having issues with uBlock Origin?
A couple of days ago this forum started showing clutter that I had hidden with uBlock. Now I have a large blank space above the
forum threads and another section showing signup to the weekly email and a list of the boards which were also hidden.
The first visit of the day looks correct as per my rules, additional visits causes the forum not to render properly.
Originally thought it was only this forum but its now doing it with Youtube, all the messy clutter is back. Initially everything is
correct but at some point it fails to block the elements I have set. Googled for current issues and noticed a few have had
antivirus alerts when installing but with auto updates I have not had anything like that here.
Thanks

No problem with mine.

I used to use uBlock Origin, but it did start to cause issues with certain sites. Have since moved to Brave browser and never looked back!2

No problems here. MSE do sometimes change their container names which means the filters need to be updated in uBlock, but I've not noticed any changes recently.

Kind member sent me a copy of their filters which mostly matched mine already. First time I loaded this site or Youtube appearedto have fixed the problem but it returned on subsequent visits.Rolled back to 1.40 and fingers crossed its fixed now...Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0

Firefox here and maybe part of the issue its an older version (v87). Every Firefox update seems to take it further
away from my requirements so I stopped auto updates.
Who thinks updating a browser that breaks the users plugins without any warning was a sensible idea? Firefox
did it one too many times.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...1
