Problem description

The current recommended list AdBlockID includes large numbers of very broad cosmetic filters: https://github.com/realodix/AdBlockID/blob/57f962c2aec0f16c25ea4ac76ef47000cdcbbda7/dist/adblockid.adfl.txt#L2044-L2510. They are prone to false positive as reported in realodix/AdBlockID#1382 (tho it's apparently non-public site, another case realodix/AdBlockID#1331) and with such an amount can affect performance. I see size-based rules are sometimes useful, but the problems are 1. all generic instead of site-specific and 2. just way too many. See how many size-based generic rules other popular lists include; e.g. EasyList China: 0, EasyList Spanish: 0, Liste FR: 0, ABPindo: 0 *. The list may still worth recommended list for its effectiveness, which admittedly I don't know. But the point above is something to be considered with all other factor.

Proposed solution

NA

  • AG Base is the list including many such rules, but still far less and happy to trim them down.

Isn't it resolved by realodix/AdBlockID#1383?

Talking about development activity, AdBlockID seems to be much more actively developed than ABPindo.

Yeah, there's no problem as they're moved to optional list.
@realodix Hi, thank you for your quick fix and all the nice work, and sorry for my impatience.

As I can see, it's resolved by the author of the filter.

Seems like that.
