Change to uBlock Origin Settings for MajorGeeks.com
-
For those who use the uBlock Origin extension and visit MajorGeeks.com, none of the comments are being displayed under the description of each program.
This is a change I haven't noticed until very recently, and some people, including myself, like to see the comments.
Since cosmetic filtering is always enabled by default, I had to toggle off cosmetic filtering for that site.

If I were to begin using Vivaldi's Ad/Tracker blocking sources in place of uBlock Origin, would there be a way to disable cosmetic filtering for MajorGeeks.com?
It seems to me that with Vivaldi's blocking, you would have to either allow all the ads or block all of them, including the comments. -
@AllanH Hi - it's possible, but requires some technical skill and understanding how blocklists work.
Basically you can add exception rules to a custom blocklist you make yourself and load into Vivaldi.

I decided to disable the EasyList filter and replace it with EasyList (minified) filter (https://filterlists.com/lists/easylist-minified).
That solved the problem on MajorGeeks.com.
Along with my other filters, based on what I've seen, this would be an acceptable alternative to the uBlock Origin extension. -
I found another way to display the Comments on MajorGeeks.
You can keep the much larger EasyList filter if you add the Exception Rule@@||majorgeeks.com^$elemhide
and Import it as a file into the filter list.
