you need to

• reset ublock origin settings back to default
• upgrade firefox browser to recent update ~firefox 121~

FF121 is not available on all distros yet, just FYI.

Anyway, the main issue I see here here is allReadyAfter: 13269 ms (selfie) - over 13secs readiness time from selfie is very unusual.

@megitu please disable all other extensions to see if they're not causing the delay in uBO's launch time. Then, yes, please try on uBO's default settings. You can make a backup first. Alternatively, make a new browser profile, install only uBO and leave it on default config. Does it happen there?

Some more info. Report in the first post was generated from LibreWolf (v.120, the newest in my distro - Manjaro Linux). The same issue I have in Firefox(v.120), Opera, Vivaldi, Chromium, Pale Moon and Basilisk.

The only browser among those tested by me without this issue is Waterfox (v.G6.0.6), with uBO (v.1.54.0) and Decentraleyes (v.2.0.18).

And just tested in Firefox (v.120):

• after resetting ublock origin settings to default the issue still occurs,
• in Troubleshooting Mode (without any extensions) there is no issue.

Edit: Just discovered that without the extension I don't care about cookies there is no issue ( So it is not uBO. They misled me by writing to disable the “EasyList Cookie” filter).

Issue solved :)
