My Browser Builds (Part 5)

I am talking BOTH my Chromium AND my SERPENT 52!

You have to do the par-for-the-course normal ol' mods for Serpent 52 because "as-is" the FIREFOX VERSION does have a "minimum" that wants something higher than FIFTY TWO.

I think the minimum was somewhere in the mid SEVENTIES.  But again, PAR FOR THE COURSE.  We all know how to modify extensions for Serpent 52, nothing new and need not be regurgitated (sp?).

This is in my Chromium profile, everything is always always always done in that profile FIRST.  And then migrated over to my barely-used-near-END-OF-LIFE Serpent 52.

"Long Live" all of these UXP browsers.  All the power to those that use it.  I'm not the only member of MSFN that sees them very near "end of life".  Just for nostalgic purposes and not for "real use".  Just kind of a fact, whether we "like" it or not.

I am embarrassed to admit that ONE of the reasons I was using AdNauseam in the first place now is a feature of regular uBO.

I only update lists MANUALLY and hate hate hate anything that auto-updates.  To each their own.

The icon changes color for when a list is successfully updated.  That used to be only in AdNauseam but is now in uBO also.  Did not track down to which version introduced this feature.

It appears that all AdGuard lists are being taken offline.

You have obviously not even tried AdNauseam and just want to make it look like I am "OT".  I am not.

I just stated facts. I do not make it look anything. But you didn't mention in your previous posts which version of AdNauseam you was using, what advantages this extension might have over uBO that prompted you to install it and which UXP browser you was actually talking about. And any Chrome/Chromium experiences and CRX extensions are indeed offtopic here and misleading. No more, no less.

Works fine here. AdGuard lists have been updated successfully just now by uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.35 in New Moon 28. So, I can't confirm your observation.

Lucky you.  Still down for me but should only be temporary.  I'll give it a couple days.

One country, which we are here forbidden to even breath towards, not to mention calling its name in relation to anything non-positive, is heavily invested in AdGuard. All engineers, the majority of AdGuard developers and other employees work from that country, but registered in Cyprus. Would you wonder why? It's to avoid any possible sanctions, complications, continue to roam free and spread in the West without consequences. They *of course* don't host their lists on servers in that country, they host on Cloudflare, and you're blocked by Cloudflare, not AdGuard. Why would AdGuard compromise their state mission?

Your Cloudflare block was already explained to you, I think by Saxon. You told us you get "Are you a human?" on Cloudflare sites. So, your IP is in a bad list.

I'm not getting any restrictions by Cloudflare, all is updated fine.

[NotHereToPlayGames]

Can you show me via a screencap that the AdGuard lists come from a Cloudflare server?

The lists will not update here at work but they still update fine at home.

I could always manaully migrate a list from home to here at work.  

[NotHereToPlayGames]

Everything updates fine from here at home.  And yep, at least a few of the lists do come from Cloudflare servers, I did not check all of my lists.

I think I need to STOP updating filter lists from AT WORK.

The below is revealed in the logs when I perform an update here at home (I use the same exact lists at work) - I'm surprised I haven't been FIRED for these "words" showing up from a company computer on a company network!

Means the home IP is clean.

It's official, per the developer. But the question is,  why won't they just redirect you to another CDN, as they claim they do.

I've heard rumors that uBO has embedded telemetry but I cannot claim to have dug into that,

Do you use dev. versions from git?

It probably depends on what sites you visits. Still using PM for real and despite rantings, I don't switch to any other browser permanently. Guess it's the attachment to the setup I made in the older Firefox days, which admittedly is a bit outdated due to useful extensions being abandoned, but with other browsers I'm just bothered by other things, so sticking to what I'm used to.

UXP is at its all time best as far as web compatibility goes.

I agree with that. You can still surf well with New Moon 28 (and Serpent too). And I can confidently do without the overloaded, newfangled and resource-hungry pages in the UXP browsers.
