Hey i just wondering if someone here made a porn/adult subscription list for uBlockList. I'de like to have one for me please !

Hey there! I don't think this is in the scope of this repository.

But anyways, I just did a quick check on multiple search engines including: Google, DuckDuckGo, Bing, Brave, Ecosia and some SearXNG instances.

All of them seem to have a "Safe search" functionality that filters "adult content", though the SearX one doesn't seem to be as good.

Do you have a reason why those tools aren't enough for you?

hey Aug ! Safe Search is a great tool, but you can disable it. With Stayfocusd, i can disable safe research options, but on the page you can disable safe research directly (the button appear on the top right of the page)

Like maybe it can be deleted by UBlock ?

I did some research, and maybe this extension might help.

It enforces safe search on multiple search engines, including ones that aren't supported by uBlacklist.

Now, about the button on the page, you can use uBlock Origin to remove it.

This is an interesting topic.

When it comes to your suggestion (having an adult content block list), I imagine that such list would be gigantic, and it would probably slow down your browser if you had to go through it at every search query you make.

The aforementioned safe search extension does something that seems to be in line with uBlacklist, and maybe it could be useful to have as part of the project. (If the maintenance burden isn't too big).

Now granted, I'm still very new to this codebase and I don't know what the main developer thinks about it, so my opinion doesn't have much weight here.
