1 year ago Does anyone know what could be causing this? The only change I made was switching the DNS Secure to "Default Protection" upon a recommendation from the Mullvad extension.
The updated recommendation is actually to set it to Off.
"Default protection" is not a consistent setting and will follow a logic spelled out. Which mean syou might or might not use Encrypted DNS based on your situation.

1 year ago Can you try with a clean Mullvad Browser install to check if it's happening? (to rule out any customization creating this error)

1 year ago This happens to me when opening reddit in a new tab. Same issue with a clean browser install.

3 weeks ago Are there any updates for this bug? What is causing it? Reddit is always affected by this for me.
Edit:
No custom configurations, just a basic install on MacOS Sequoia (happened on Sonoma too) with the latest version of Mullvad Browser. Bug is not reproducible on Tor Browser.
It always occurs for me when I select "Open link in new tab" rather than just clicking on the link from the search engine. Occurs on all search engines from what it seems (I tried DuckDuckGo, Brave Search and Startpage)
It occurs on Startpage by default (i.e. when I click on any reddit link) as Starpage automatically opens any links in a new tab.

1 week ago @Thorin-Oakenpants I contacted the Ublock team, and they claimed that the problem occurs due to this filter:
||reddit.com^$removeparam=rdt,doc
In this case, they stated that the fix should be made by the development team of MullvadBrowser.

1 week ago The filter works fine on Firefox, so I think Mullvad can have a separate unbreak list for these cases? The unbreak filter would be
||reddit.com^$removeparam=rdt,doc,badfilterpersonally, I don't think we (MB, Tor Browser when/if they get uBO) should be in the business of maintaining lists
The real question we should be asking is why it works in FF but not MB - diagnose the cause instead of treating the symptom

Agreed. FWIW, I had the same problem plenty of times with Tor Browser and uBlock Origin.

1 week ago From what I see:
When opening reddit in new tab from DDG page, reddit tries to reload the page with a new rdt parameter and at each time uBO removes the parameter, causing multiple retries error. There's no set-cookie request header at each reload.
When opening reddit directly from the URL bar, it just tries to reload the page with the same rdt parameter once, this time it reloads with a set-cookie request header.
In both scenarios (opening in new tab and loading directly) with Firefox, reddit behaves like case 2.
Every now and then, when I try to access Reddit, this annoying "The page isn’t redirecting properly" (https://ibb.co/C0WD4c1). I use a few custom filter lists on Ublock (Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool and Bypass Paywalls Clean filter), however, this warning specifically occurs on Reddit.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? The only change I made was switching the DNS Secure to "Default Protection" upon a recommendation from the Mullvad extension.
