what subscriptions has best compability with eachother?

I read somewhere that having too many filter subscriptions could make adblock slower and also sort of "conflict" with eachother

the performance isnt really a vital point for me as im having a computer that can handle it and also id rather that more ads get blocked than some miliseconds quicker adblock

i was thinking all 3 Ricks lists: element hiding and tracking filter and the normal... and then jamies one...are theese compatible? and are there others i can add on that will not interfere?

My 3 subscriptions are made to work with each other as well as any standalone subscription that is also made as a "+ EasyList" subscription:
http://adblockplus.org/en/subscriptions

I think we would probably all agree that the 'general' type of subscriptions would just add a lot of redundancy and would probably just slow Adblock Plus down. Some filters vs whitelistings between subscriptions could also cause some false positives.

You can try any combo you want though. It's totally up to you. Just keep that info in mind. The only subscription I would NOT recommend with most all subscriptions here would be Filterset.G.

yes i know about the filterset g thing. I read the faq and im a former user of that filter waaay back

and i know that your filters are compatible with eachother i was just thinking that maybe some other particular filter were especialy designed to be used with yours and then another on top of thoose and so forth... i guess i have to experiment myself then

good info btw that the +easylist subscriptions are compatible at least

thanks for a outstanding subscription rick btw!

There is minimal redundancy with the "+ EasyList" combo-subscriptions because it IS the EasyList with other 'specialty or regional' filtering additions ONLY. This keeps those subscriptions very "trim".
