I just went to the filterlist, set a checkmark for all annoying filters and applied. Not much more than that. Plus I'm using a VPN so maybe that helps somehow as well, dunno.
My additional add-ons are decentealeyes, noscript, privacybadger. Dont think that makes a difference tho.
I did the same without the vpn but no luck.
So weird, but seems like you're not the only one. I was actually surprised as well. Didn't think this would work lol
Huh.. ok I just disabled the options again and it still works? Does it still use the filters maybe? I didn't check today before applying.. but I know it usually doesn't work with Insta, so I assumed it was the change in ublock.
Might be IP related then or I was just lucky? Who knows..
I tried using the usually blocked IPs of the dutch server too.. but everything works. I'm confused lol.
I'm surprised you can access the site with a VPN. Mullvad is completely cock blocked and immediately redirects you to a login page.
I am also surprised, but VPN is definitely connected without leaks.. I just checked. And usually I also have problems.
I'm also still getting blocked on other websites.
