! Title: ⚙️ Dandelion Sprout's Annoyances List ! Version: 05November2025v3-Compilation ! Expires: 18 hours ! Description: This list is made in the style of Fanboy's and AdGuard's annoyances lists, to show that I can make a just as good such annoyances list as them. It combines many of my proudest and most frequently maintained international lists, as a proof-of-concept and as a curated list for simplicity's sake. ! Homepage: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/Wiki/General-info.md#-english ! Note, 05/11/2025, for "AdGuard for Android" only: If you view this page on raw•githubusercontent•com through the "Source" button in the settings of AdGuard for Android, note that this is NOT the list version that is actually in the app, that the app's list version is catastrophically worse (Missing almost 90% of entries) than my version, and that the app is blatantly falsely describing it as my list version. https://filters.adtidy.org/android/filters/250_optimized.txt is the version that is in the app. Feel free to give an upvote about the false descriptions on https://github.com/AdguardTeam/FiltersRegistry/issues/1147 if you wish to. In the meantime, users should add https://filters.adtidy.org/android/filters/250.txt as a custom list instead. ! The included files and what they block in AdGuard and uBO: ! • Dandelion Sprout's Anti-Malware List ! ⌘ IP addresses that host only malware domains and nothing else. ! ⌘ Domains that major tech groups lost the ownership of. ! ⌘ PC "optimiser" sponsorships. ! ⌘ Malicious or tracker-inserting adblockers. ! • Actually Legitimate URL Shortener List ! ⌘ URL parameters believed to be unnecessary or trackers. ! • Social Share List ! ⌘ Non-"Social media" sites' links to social media pages. ! ⌘ "Share page" buttons. ! • I Don't Want to Download Your Browser ! ⌘ "Download [browser/Acrobat]" buttons. ! • Anti-"Snow marketing" List ! ⌘ Falling snow on pages, which are either obstructing the page view, are CPU-intensive, or both. ! • Empty Padding Remover ! ⌘ Gradients when moving your mouse on video embeds. ! ⌘ A few sites' empty whitespace boxes. ! • Anti-"Functionality Removal" List ! ⌘ Attempts to prevent text from being copied, let alone normal copying. ! • Anti-"Prayer Times" List ! ⌘ Prayer time clocks on newssites. ! • Falukorv List ! ⌘ Blockings of sites in lists where there seems to be insufficient reasons to block them. ! ⌘ Failsafes in case any lists have catastrophically miswritten entry syntaxes. ! • Anti-"IMDb on non-IMDb sites" List ! ⌘ Search engines and non-IMDb movie info sites' displaying of IMDb scores, so that users will no longer feel insulted if their favourite shows have a score of around 4.7. ! • Stop Autoplay on Video Sites ! ⌘ Prevents videos from automatically jumping to other and often unrelated videos after having finished. ! • Anti-"Awful comments" List ! ⌘ Certain truly awful comment sections that contain only loud screaming, incoherence, and/or absolute nonsense. ! • Browse Websites Without Logging In ! ⌘ Unnecessary login prompts. ! ⌘ A few sites' gradient blurring of article previews. ! • Dandelion Sprout's African Languages List ! ⌘ Aims to block ads on a few websites that are only in languages that are not widely spoken outside Africa (Swahili, Amharic, Hausa, etc.) ! • Ad Removal List for Unusual Ads ! ⌘ Fake sections on coupon sites that are not actually coupons. ! ⌘ Ads and annoyances that are specific to Windows desktop programs. ! ⌘ Extraordinarily obtrusive premium service banners. ! ⌘ Spammer sections about casinos or slot machines. ! DailyMotion Simplicity / Know Your Meme: Pure Browsing Experience / Wikia: Pure Browsing Experiences ! ⌘ General annoyances on the sites in question. ! • Annoyance List's main file ! ⌘ Certain sites' entry types that are of relevance to pretty no one. ! ⌘ The "Anonymous animal" bubbles on Google Docs. ! ⌘ Obvious honey traps that sites use to detect adblockers. ! ⌘ YouTube's "Recommended for You" entries in the right-side suggestions bar. ! ⌘ Various other oddities. ! • (Windows, macOS, and Linux only) Anti-"Custom Cursors" List ! ⌘ Custom embedded cursors. ! • (Android and iOS only) Staying on the Phone Browser ! ⌘ Mobile app download banners. ! • (Windows only) Japanese Text Softener ! ⌘ Hardcoding by sites to use the worst font ever made (MS PGothic), and rare cases of other bad fonts. ! ⌘ Blurring of a few sites' article previews. ! • (macOS only) Dandelion Sprout's Website Stretcher ! ⌘ Makes some websites use much more of the screen width, instead of just a thin central column. !
