Scriptlet Doctor
Attention users of Firefox Quantum, Firefox Legacy, Pale Moon, Basilisk and other browsers from the Firefox family.
Interesting information appeared on the “board”, but since it is not recommended to post links to that site here, I will give excerpts from there.
As has already been discussed several times, the uBlock Origin + Firefox combination has a problem with rules that require scriptlets to be executed on sites with strict CSP rules (in particular on Yandex and its satellites), which can be partially solved using Tampermonkey. Unfortunately, this solution is not suitable for Firefox-legacy (pre-quantum) and Goanna browsers (Pale Moon, Basilisk), so the idea arose to make a separate add-on specifically for this task, which would not have such restrictions.
As a result of the experiments, the Scriptlet Doctor extension appeared, which was tested and approved dimisa, author of RU AdList, and is recommended for use for options 2 and 3 of the instructions for using RU AdList filters. The Scriptlet Doctor add-on is available for both Legacy browsers and current versions of Firefox. By default, it is active only for Yandex domains, but the list can be edited in the settings (quick access to settings: Ctrl+click on the add-on button in the toolbar).
When installing the script RU AdList JS Fixes no longer needed.
EasyList (main filter)
+ RU AdList Fixes
The Anti-Counter added in this version is a kind of Runet analogue of EasyPrivasy. When these two filters are enabled at the same time, basically the same rules are triggered. But if in RuNet EasyPrivasy is the main supplier of false positives, then the Anti-Counter does not have this drawback.
EasyList (main filter)
RU AdList / RU AdList for uBlock Origin
Adblock Warning Removal List (aka Anti-adblock)
Counters (aka RU AdList: Counters, Anti-counter)
BitBlock (aka RUS: BitBlock List, blocks garbage and social media)
+ RU AdList Fixes
Only Bitblock is added here (read the description!), but this is a very voluminous filter that includes (and corrects) Fanboy's Social + rules for Runet, both social and against garbage. Contrary to popular belief, social filters are difficult to use social networks - this is not so. All blocking rules usually apply only on third-party resources, for example ||vk.com/widget_community.php$third-party will block the loading of the widget and its frame everywhere except vk.com, which is responsible for this "third-party" option. Therefore, Bitblock users will not have any problems with VK and other networks.
I will add on my own behalf. Some people think that it cannot be used in legacy browsers. Perhaps this is the opinion of the RU AdList developers, who believe that Greasemonkey cannot cope with this task. But that's not true. I installed it in Pale Moon and I must say that this “monkey” works fine both with RU AdList JS Fixes and with other scripts.
Those users of Firefox, Pale Moon, Basilisk, etc. who install RU AdList JS Fixes to combat Yandex advertising and direct messages should pay attention to Scriptlet Doctor. This extension allows you to solve the mentioned problems using uBlock Origin itself, without connecting additional scripts, so Scriptlet Doctor is easier for the browser than the Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey + RU AdList JS Fixes combination.
I don’t use Yandex sites and services, so I can’t say which option is more effective in practice, Scriptlet Doctor or RU AdList JS Fixes.
As the hon. JustOff(author of the new extension),
