Yes, it does work in GNOME. I think I used it in StumpWM when it didn’t work. The session was not wrapped in dbus-launch. Now I’m using EXWM, which is started within dbus-launch, and the ad blocker does work. I suspect that the only problem was that DBus wasn’t working properly when starting StumpWM without the dbus-launch wrapper. I hope this information will be helpful to people from the future who find this old bug report through a web search. -- Ricardo
