uBO barely works on facebook these days. Try and use the element picker.
What do you mean? I just visited a site and uBO blocked FB fine.
As in, it doesn't block most stuff automatically. You need to pick them using the element picker manually. And even that doesn't stick all the time.

#13I'm loving Firefox Containers for various use cases, but is running Google/Facebook in them worth the extra hassle if you use uBO/Privacy Badger? It blocks all that stuff anyway.
I was pretty "meh" on containers until I put in a bit of effort to set them up. Flagging certain domains to always open in a specific tab category took a bit to work through on the common sites I visit, but now that its all set up I think its great.

#16I'm finding more and more that it might finally be time to switch back to Firefox. Is Google still planning to destroy adblock with Manifest V3?
The time to switch back to Firefox was years ago. But better late than never.

#17I love this Facebook container. Love to see the Facebook container mark also on other websites trying to track me.
I also use the Firefox multi-account containers to set a temporary container for every new tab. To not lose logins etc I'm websites I visit frequently, I set up dedicated containers for those. Work very well.
Anyone else with experience of the Firefox multi-account container extension?

Are you talking about stuff on the Facebook website? I'm talking about blocking Facebook tracking on other sites.

I think that one of you is talking about network filters and the other is talking about cosmetic filters. Cosmetic filters are a bit hard right now, due to Facebooks effort to obscure them. Network filters are as easy and as reliable as ever though.

Is it better than uBO? If so, how?
