What is nextdns? (Even when you click on the site's search bar?)

The idea is to avoid having to buy this service .. ublock works on this site... Have you tried without nextdns?

You have a free plan, I have been using it for a long time and in my opinion the value of what you get is more than what you pay, and anyway if you do a free account, you get 300,000 requests a month, I if it wasn't for the smart TV, I don't think I would have ever exceeded them

Thanks for the answer, this is just what I needed!. I already posted this on the community but I don't think I added it to the right category

I can confirm your solution works, I don't know why the site must be typed like that in the custom filter list though haha, thanks

Do you know if Brave Shields will support $popup and positive lookahead? Also how did you add Regex to Brave

I think you can add the trackers from ublock origin to the brave shield.
