Idea: Better Adblock Extension #20

Closed taylo2allen closed 3 years ago

taylo2allen commented 5 years ago

It would be nice to have a better adblock solution where you can whitelist and blacklist sites as well as blocking ads in the content of the site maybe a proxy.

The extension apis already exist for this, and I've already implemented an example. Not sure what 'maybe a proxy' means though.

Is there any way we can work with uBlock origin?

mschilli87 commented 5 years ago

@jcmuller: see https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/4832 :wink:

will be fixed when https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/pull/5317 is merged

mschilli87 commented 4 years ago

@lyiriyah: While I agree https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/pull/5317 will be a huge step forward, some more flexibilty in controlling what is blocked might still be left for an extension to implement.

There already is an interceptor API - while it's not public yet (also see #13), I don't think there's anything left to do here (in terms of e.g. adding new APIs).
