Just noticed that Brave doesn't support has-text. Would be awesome to have that feature!

superlex commented 1 year ago

AdGuard lists use :contains() instead of :has-text(), Brave should support both of them.

Bumping this issue. It would be great to start supporting these selectors

Any news on this? Facebook ads (video pages or on mobile) are unblocked by the lack of has-text().

In the mean time one can use "Stylebot" to match and hide elements using CSS matching.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I’m wondering what can StyleBot do that uBlock can’t, because having to install an extension kind of defeats the purpose of having a built-in adblocker. Specially for my use case, where I wanted to do the blocking on an iPhone on which I can’t install any extensions.
