Don't see that ad, disable Ignore generic cosmetic filters on Fenix and try again.

I had to refresh the webpage a few times on a normal window to get another ad. This is the DOM for the ad (I replaced seemingly random characters with randomcharacters)

[YoshiTabletopGamer]

I had already disabled Ignore generic cosmetic filters

[uBlock-user]

I was able to reproduce, reddit.com##.adLinkBar:upward(article[style="z-index: 1;"]) works ?

[YoshiTabletopGamer]

Yes, it works.

[uBlock-user]

For the most of the time, reddit.com#?#article.Post:-abp-has(a[rel="nofollow noopener sponsored"]) present in EasyList works and the ad gets blocked, but sometimes the css structure seems to be changing and that's when a new filter is needed.

[YoshiTabletopGamer]

Thank you, @uBlock-user 👍

I observed that when I opened a reddit page the first time in Private Window of Firefox Android, the promoted post was still there until I refreshed one more time. Not sure what's wrong.

test reddit.com##shreddit-comments-page-ad

@Yuki2718 for AdGuard Mobile Ads ?

[stephenhawk8054]

Yup, I confirm the above filter works. Not sure why it disappears after refreshing without that filter. Looks like it's generated from the script similar to this: https://www.redditstatic.com/shreddit/en-US/content-6bfd13c0.js

In that script there's also a comments-page-ad-video id, I think it might be applied to videos somewhere too. Btw, in the view-source, I see that at the end there's a section that looks like preparing for an anti-adblock with bait classes in the future.

<div id="adblock-test" class="ad adsense-ad googad gemini-ad openx"></div>

Also there are a lot of beacon connections from reddit.com/svc/shreddit/, is it safe to block it? (I tested with a mobile user agent on firefox pc)
