Yes, I feel the same. Even though I still have some brittle rules, I avoid most and prefer filtering for specific text or classes/ids and find the correct element from there. Before I did not use uBlock to filter elements that much because I used the filter.

I wonder if you have your filter rules open source or available somewhere. Please share.

I didn't make the effort to share them, sorry. That being said,

1. My rules are not any different from yours. I doubt you'll learn much from them given what you're already doing in your repo.

2. I feel that the "what to hide" / "not to hide" choice is too personal to be reusable by anyone else. I'm sure some of the stuff I hide will be considered excessive, and some will be considered missing. What I enjoy in this HN thread is that we share the { practice, tools, docs, tips }, then to each their own :)

3. I'm not interested in maintaining a public repo of that kind of stuff, and/or replying to Issues. So, would rather not make it public.

Sorry/notsorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ , at any rate, glad we're sharing tips around the practice.

The repository I shared is very opinionated and I will decide what goes in or not (a benevolent dictatorship). I want to make it easy for me to maintain, and others to use/fork if they want.

You could share them publicly without having the burden of replying to issues/PRs etc. But I get you.
