If you're using uBlock Origin, here are some of the filters that the author, gorhill, uses to strip out things like Trending Now.

Is there any github repo or article or something with a collection of every ip list, filter snippet, configurations one could/should want in their browser extensions (UBO, umatrix, etc)? I want pretty stringent defaults, but I understand why site altering defaults aren't there in the base extension, but I'm also not motivated to google for every permutation of things one could want.

Thank you! I use an extension on Firefox for Windows but I had no solution for Android. I'll try this!

Is there a way to do this in Safari? I notice that this extension isn't available :/

I use adguard for Safari but I'm not sure if the filters would be identical. It does have a "filter this element" option.
