FYI whoever made this, you can create clickable links to import filters. For example: https://subscribe.adblockplus.org/?location=https://raw.gith...

Quick edit: I know the domain is ABP but ublock origin picks it up.

That's actually really cool, thanks! However, the link don't work from HN for me. For the link to work, users need to click from a trusted domain listed here https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/blob/bba4732c6b47134c3f54e...

From 1.41.5b2 and above, it works on non-"trusted" sites with right-clicking the link, there will be an entry on the contextual menu to import the list.

For older versions of uBO, you can already use the old way:

    abp:subscribe?location=[...]

Thanks for your incredibly fast response and help. (Do you have a notification when your username is invoked in HN?) And of course, thanks for uBO!

In my case, the issue is that GitHub doesn't allow the apb|ubo protocol in links. However, no problem, I can use the method with "subscribe.adblockplus.org". Yet, subscribing from contextual menu is a great feature.

Hey, it’s the creator! Thanks for uBO.

Not unless you have both enabled... then ABP picks it up
