[v8.1.0] uBlacklist not working?

[PanchamBro]

UPDATE: This problem has been fixed in v8.1.1.

---

For some reason, the blacklist feature of uBlacklist is failing to remove the site in question.

I noticed it under Google while private browsing on Firefox, where Softtonic was showing up on Google search results, even though I had blocked the site.

I then tried DuckDuckGo, this time without private browsing, and the extension still didn't work.

I'm really not sure if the extension is currently flawed or not, but it's not blocking the sites that I want it to block.

Update: reinstalling the extension and restarting Firefox did not work.

Same issue for me on Firefox with DuckDuckgo. All my blocked sites are no longer blocked and show up in results. Additionally I have set the extensions to hide 'the number of blocked sites and the "Show" link' - but now this is no longer hidden

v8.1.0 is broken due to a breaking change of goober@2.1.11.

v8.1.1 was published in Firefox Add-on.

The Chrome version is under review.

Thank you for looking into this. Today I realize how much I wouldn't want to search the web without uBlacklist. 😉

Thanks for addressing the issue! I wouldn't want to have to scorn at seeing Softonic or any other website I had blocked appear on search results.

Just to add, currently not working for Bing

uBlacklist Version: 8.1.1 Chrome: Version 106.0.5249.91 (Official Build) (64-bit), Installed by scoop(scoop install googlechrome). open search in new tab，I tested google, duckduckgo, bing, but no one worked.

But if I open a new window to search, it will work.

I prefer to search for content like this now.

s.bat

REM open chrome in new window
call "cmd /c start chrome --args --new-window https://google.com/search?q="%*" https://duckduckgo.com/?q="%*" https://bing.com/search?q="%*" https://www.baidu.com/s?wd="%*" "

ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 1>nul 2>nul

example: search 'a b c' on google, duckduckgo, bing, baidu:

Had to mark "Hide the number of blocked sites and the "Show" link" to avoid the page flick that is annoying, if you guys avoid page flick or put it in another place, can be interesting to keep it.
