My custom filters - about 55,000 of them

Post by chrennik »

I posted my custom filters at

There are about 55,000 of them at the moment. I hope someone else finds parts of them as useful as I did. There are no whitelist filters to override any other list.

There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

Thanks for testing them. I removed the link because I will be removing the filters. The experiment of automating much of the process failed. There really is no end to how many things must be blocked and could consume a lifetime. It took less than a week to have more filters than EasyList, but still didn't manage to block anywhere as much as that list does. Properly maintaining a list of that size would require an entire team of contributors and maintainers putting in many years of work. Which is exactly what it took to build those lists.
