This post explains why and how Kaushik Gopal uses Firefox and provides some handy tips.

He recommends enabling the AdGuard filters in the uBlock Origin settings but the extension flags all of them as out of date. Any issues with these filters?

Update: I need to refresh and apply the filter list. Thanks @laurentb

It's strange, maybe your ISP blocks connection to the filters' source?

I checked these filters in my mobile Librewolf — extension says they all are updated

Header from "AdGuard Ads" filter. Field "time updated" has the next value: 2025-07-24T09:09:52+00:00

Some items from my uBlock filters list. There are two AdGuard filters: Ads and Mobile Ads — and the uBlock doesn't complain about them.

@evgandr That's a possibility but other filter sources aren't blocked.

Have you tried the refresh button at the top of the filter list ?
@evgandr
ublock filter list with an arrow showing the refresh button.

@amoroso Though, surely my lisp compiler is the most important app I use. (Also trigger warning, article mentions llms)

@screwlisp Okay but there are no warning icons in the relevant screenshot of the post, which I get in mine.
