Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist/issues/325

I cloned this repository to Codeberg (https://codeberg.org/just_a_husk/uBlockOrigin-AI-Blocklist/) and expanded the list to contain support for Brave and Startpage, as requested by some users ( #217 , #9 , #31 , #301 ). I imagine that maintaining this repository can be quite time-consuming, but since there haven't been new commits in about 3 months I made this new repository out of fear that the project may become abandoned. I don't blame laylavish for anything, it's just that I would rather be safe than sorry.

I also added a python file to automatically add websites to the lists. This should make it easier for users to contribute. Still, there is a LOT of work to be done and I would appreciate help from the community to keep this thing going.

Yeah, I plan to keep it running for as long as I can. I'll also try wittling down some of the current to-do's and issues as time goes on.

I hope you'll maintain the hosts file version too. 🙏

I do plan on it, currently it's still a bit out of date as the list is going through a big refactor and university is kicking my ass at the moment. I should have some more time to work on it though in the next two weeks, so we'll see if the refactor gets finished

Some of the image results from Brave Search don't play nicely. I started https://github.com/DanWaLes/Brave-Search-Image-Results-Blocking-Docs/tree/main a while ago to deal with that. I'll post rules I've added tomorrow.

Host file has been updated and will now continue to be updated with new changes

Since some time has passed since originally announcing this I'll also mention that I've added #329 #330 #331 #333 #335 #337 #342 #343 #345 #346 #347 #349 #350 #351 #352 #354 #356 #357 and #361. Most of the PR's on here have been handled as well.

I've also fixed the story.com issue mentioned in #332 using #158.

For #348 I've decided to reduce scope and leave blocking the AI features to Stevo's AI Blocklist.

In a couple of days from now I'll be taking a look at Ecosia support, as mentioned multiple times #338 #54 , but right now I'm a bit tired from the massive refactor.

@justahusk just found this! thank you for continuing this! Added a star for you on codeberg as well. Keep up the great work, but I understand if burn out gets you in the end. We all just gotta enjoy what we got sometimes while we have it. ❤️
