Compatible with EasyList, and what was done on sending report, so that broke harmony in sections under "Fix:" (...?).

Hi, as this is fixable by Easylist, please file your report here: https://github.com/easylist/easylist/issues/

(Just copy your message there).

[iam-py-test]

it shows the premium subscription ad to remove ads.

Isn't that self-promo, which is out of scope of EasyList and uAssets? Or am I an idiot and misread this?

[krystian3w]

Can be addresed in EasyList Annoyances or legacy "Fanboy Annoyances".

For the time being, I do not track whether gorhill has activated the merging of the cookie list and social media in its mirror (So that people would not change old habits).

Theoretically, it minimally resembles a widget on Reddit, which is only suitable for addressing as an annoyance (aside from the fact that an interface based on something similar to react has no readable class/id).

Outlook "ads" or "self-promo" is also handled in uAssets. Personally I think that if self-promo is annoying, it should be handled.

[krystian3w]

So made PR.

Brave Sponsored Ads aren't getting blocked, even with EasyList Annoyances.

Any ETA, if I may ask?

[stephenhawk8054]

Which browser are you using?

[ryanbr]

I can't repo, but if you want to block Brave search ads with Brave shields, use Aggresive mode in shields on search.brave.com

[uBlock-user]

@luftra can't repro on Firefox or Brave
