dcs18 Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 Can you make a screenshot of the log for just the blocked elements in program vs add-on. As far as those rules were concerned, they did work on my program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recruit Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Hello @dcs18 Please be kindly and teach me in this case : I knew from here that you were a user of M$ Outlook. I asked you that because I saw in your mail signature a gif picture ( the train ). I did not manage to add a gif in Outlook signature : the gif does not play. The questions are : Did you manage to add that gif into your Outlook signature in case that you still use it now ? If not, in which mail client we can use a gif into signature? I am supposing that it will be quite easy to add a gif into signature through web mail version. Is that true? I haven't checked yet, I need more to add a gif into Outlook signature, or possible into other mail client. I searched a bit on the net and generally I found out only frustrated users which have not managed to add any gif(s) in M$ Outlook signature. That's the main reason for which I chosen to ask an expert. Thanks for reply, Man ! PS. : No more reactions for now, but I will be back ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Log for program https://i.imgur.com/iVSSW6B.png Your logs do support your assertion that the same set of rules is being blocked differently. The program seems to be blocking inclusively whereas the add-on is a bit exclusive. The point I like about the add-on blocking is the fact that it brings more granularity into the equation and I suspect it might be loading the pages a mite faster than the program — have you tested page-loading times?

Nah, I was waiting for your testing first of addon standalone and then addon vs program. Plus nsanedown is a fast enough page as it is....let's try on a heavy page.

I was using Outlook a very long time ago when working as a salaried individual — organizations rely exclusively on Outlook due to the interoperability with Outlook Exchange. ATM, I use Outlook merely for my Calendar needs — it's no longer my e-mail client. 9 hours ago, Recruit said: I asked you that because I saw in your mail signature a gif picture ( the train ).

Undertaker Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 The nsanedown homepage loading takes 4.5s- 6s for addon(empty cache) while the program took 8.6-9.8s for loading the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 Hmmm . . . . . pretty much, what was expected — the program blocking is working it's way inwards into Firefox whereas the add-on blocking is working outwards (it's already present within the browser.)

Global Block Rule ://$~third-party,~stylesheet,~image,~script ://$third-party,~stylesheet,~image These Global Rules block more than even the ones which I use — that appeals to me.

I have found that if I use these set of rules, most sites work alright(the main content works good). Using the your own preferred rules — navigate to YouTube and play any video and post a screenshot of the logs displaying just the Blocked elements.

dcs18 Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 Each and every modifier (regardless of self/exception) in a separate line — take your own time (no hurries, no worries — we're just seeking a middle path . . . . . unfortunately, the handicap is that my add-on blocking is neutered in standalone mode.)
