This is quite an interesting area, the uc.js stuff. I don't use any of the above browsers but I'd still love to see your efforts and new scripts. In general, I prefer to avoid using them since they are a bit hacky and cumbersome to handle, but the power and potential of these cannot be ignored.

Most probably the "Legacy" version, as compared to the WebExtension. As an end user, I wouldn't say there's much difference. They both block content excellently. Yes, the WebExtension is newer, more optimized and maintained but with careful filterlist selections, you can achieve excellent results with "Legacy" too. I might even assume that due to its XUL nature, "Legacy" could have some tricks under its sleeve that the WebExtension doesn't, but this is just an assumption. The latest MV3 version aka uBO Lite, is the one to avoid: Less power, less features, as dictated by Google.

Don't use both at the same time. Select which one your prefer, and use that one. If you don't know the difference between them, it's not difficult to find out. "Optimized" does not have the same meaning on all filterlists that offer such a version. And it doesn't automatically mean it's "better".

I've had zero issues with either yours, or AstroSkipper's version. They work perfectly. Filterlists remain the most important ingredient for now and I don't feel uBO Legacy is superseded in a substantial way. If you want/need something more "modern", why not try AdGuard for Windows, assuming you are on Windows? Should work on ALL browsers, since it's not a browser extension.

Hello again. Pale Moon 33.3.0 enables DNS prefetching by default. However, that now clashes with the default uBO setting "Disable pre-fetching (to prevent any connection for blocked network requests)" which disables it in the browser every time. Perhaps it's worth considering disabling that default setting in uBO. In any case, the user can still make a choice. More info here: uBlock Origin will interfere with your DNS prefetching setting

That workaround works nicolaasjan, thanks (Pale Moon). Is it meant to enforce an IPv4 connection? As for Android, there's really no need to mess with those hacks. The GitHub mirrors are perfectly fine. If that website doesn't fix its web config, perhaps it's worth considering changing the main filterlist URL?

Update: I think I've found the culprit. Turns out that after disabling the VPN, I was still unable to connect to void.gr which hosts this filterlist. So, I went into the Network Connection properties and disabled IPv6. This solves it. Can't understand though why this issue suddenly emerged. I didn't change anything recently and IPv6 was always enabled there. Perhaps something is going on with the router.

Thanks, I tried other DNS servers: didn't work. I then enabled the VPN: it worked. Turned off VPN: still works. Weird glitch. Still unreachable in Android device. I'll also try a router restart. I don't think there's another local filterlist. I will post if I find something. For languages/countries not having separate AdGuard filterlists, the AdGuard main filterlist does include several neatly separated entries. Search for "NOTE: " (no quotes) and you will see them.
