Bug ID: 458645
Summary: Adblock is absolutely useless in the current state
Product: Falkon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: extensions
Assignee: now...@gmail.com
Reporter: kaesbertrich...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Adblock does not work on countless sites.
Youtube does not block ads that run before (and between) videos.
On https://www.anime-loads.org/, the ads are blocked but the pop ups still pop
up (i.e. empty windows that you have to close anyway), and you are constantly
prompted to deactivate the adblocker.
On Voe.sx, during the streams, many pop ups jump endlessly into the middle of
the picture, which you have to click away, and in addition, pop ups open from
time to time (but they are empty again - so the content is at least blocked).
On Kinox.to the advertising windows also pop up and the page is blocked until
you let the (empty) pop ups open and then have to close them again.
I could list many more sites but would like to leave it at that. I just want to
say that your Adblock does not work at all. When will you finally add ublock
origin to your browser? That would be the solution for everything (at least for
now). Otherwise, you should at least offer customers the appropriate rules for
the Adblock from you. Because as your Adblock is, it is of absolutely no use
for a normal surfer. I have now seen so much Youtube advertising again in the
last few days that I could freak out. That scares off an infinite number of
users from your browser, why don't you fix this problem? Because the Youtube
problem at least I see exists for several years apparently.
This should be a constructive criticism so that finally something changes
because like this the browser is not really usable. I hope this changes soon.
