LinkedIn: main feed blocker not working anymore (including fix!) #124

Closed th0rgall closed 3 years ago

th0rgall commented 3 years ago

The LinkedIn feed (Main feed) and feed_and_post (News feed) blockers are not working anymore.

Here are hidee definitions that do work (2nd Sheet tab): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/137VLjd54RrE3894RmX2-kKRSoBTEWAMO0VGk4wKpK6o/edit#gid=1887861577

I also included description renaming proposals

The reason they weren't working anymore is that "Feed Updates" innerText got compared to an innerHTML inside the DOM that has more whitespace padding & 2 newlines. The sheet definitions above include this exact innerHTML, including whitespace.

Update 10/05: I also fixed instagram.com-feed, I'll continue adding hidee definition updates to my spreadsheet ~; putting the updates ones in a new sheet.~

Update 10/20: I'm fixing sites & adding new sites in my hidee sheet. If anyone ever updates the main hidees, ask me to send you the entries I changed/added/fixed, I'll look in the Google Sheet History (or just copy mine as-is).

Current issues https://github.com/louisbarclay/nudge/issues/121 Also is it possible to explain this common error causing some people to not be able to sue this browser?

Hey @BrandonKMLee, I understand you want to get that issue fixed, but in Github Issues, you should keep the discussion to the issue at hand!

I haven't looked at that issue in Brave. You can try to debug it yourself, preferably after setting up the latest development extension, see instructions here https://github.com/louisbarclay/nudge/blob/master/instructions.md. The current development version of Nudge works for me in Chrome. I think it's likely that the issue you refer to is either Brave-specific, related to this issue I fixed already https://github.com/louisbarclay/nudge/issues/118, or related to another reported issue.

I have shipped a new version to the Chrome Web Store which includes all of @th0rgall's fantastic updates to Hidees, including these. I've also made @th0rgall admin on the Google Sheet that controls Hidees to more easily modify these in future if you want to.
