I'm wondering where I could get a filter list that blocks the flashy animated shit but leaves the static sidebar stuff alone.
Easy-list is doing a great job of blocking 99% of the real bullshit, but it's blocking about 99% of everything else too. I'm not trying to screw content providers out of their revenue stream, I just want to be able to read a page.
For example, cool ads:
Are separate from main content
Aren't animated to the point of making it hard to read content
Do not load or play videos unless clicked
not OK:
Pages have a loud video playing upon arrival.
Scroll trackers that cover content.
Flashing bright colors, creating seizures
Animating in an obtuse manner, usually sex ads
I didn't see anything when I searched Google and this forum, but I'm not even really sure what to search for. 'Nice filters' 'only worst ads'?

Re: Conservative filter list for worst offenders
Something similar is the Acceptable Ads whitelist, in conjunction with any other filter-list; however, if you'd like to start a standalone list that blocks only the worst stuff, feel free (I think you'd be allowed to derive it from EasyList to start off).
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.
