I don't know if a popup that asks you to do something count as annoyance but for me it's annoying. Facebook keep asking me to turn on notifications that i don't want to, and i really want to get rid of it. Clicking on "not now" doesn't get rid of it, it will appear later.

It happens on main page:

@intense So we need a specific filter for each language?

I ask because, for example for YT in this case #p123541 the text changes in relation to the language of the site: AD / ANNONCE / إعلان / 广告

It's not so simple, the scrolling seems to be inhibited without clicking one of the options.

You could try:
- turn ON what FB is asking
- when a notification is appearing on your PC (in the tray) try right clicking on it and turn it OFF.

Should be already hidden / blocked (the sponsored stuff). I see no such posts.
Did you update your lists ?

browser (version) ?
adblocker (version) ?
filter lists enabled ?

not the above poster, but I am getting facebook "sponsored" ads too.

Firefox 58.0a1 (2017-10-10) (64 bit)
Adblock Plus dev build 2.99.0 (webextension version)
"acceptable ads" is off

EasyList (auto update blocked at work, but placing the manually downloaded txt from today in the extension folder and clicking update made it say "updating..." for a while and now says it was updated a few minutes ago. Also restarted browser)

If you see the sponsored only at work, you should add all the facebook filters from easylist as custom filters.

https://s1.postimg.org/4kel7q4vlr/untitled2.jpg
"Interesting news from pages that you appreciate"

- if you see something like "People you could know" / or in italian "Gente / Persone che potresti conoscere" try this filter

english

Code: Select all

facebook.com#?#.fbUserStory:-abp-contains(People you)
italian (put the exact words or only the first of them)

Code: Select all

facebook.com#?#.fbUserStory:-abp-contains(Persone che)
- for "notizie interessanti" try something similar (I cannot reproduce right now):

Code: Select all

facebook.com#?#.fbUserStory:-abp-contains(Notizie interessanti)

I'm having the same issue as apokroton.
Here's the example of an ad: https://image.ibb.co/mKhErR/spam.jpg

I've modified the filter you proposed and created this one:

Code: Select all

facebook.com#?#div[id^="hyperfeed_story_id_"]:-abp-has(a:-abp-contains("Proponowany post"))
But it's not solving it.

Test without the quotation mark (") in your filter

Code: Select all

facebook.com#?#div[id^="hyperfeed_story_id_"]:-abp-has(a:-abp-contains(Proponowany post))

I guess you are using ABP, right ?

When you get again the sponsored stuff right click on page and save the page (you'll get a html page and a folder).
Zip it all and upload it on some server. PM me with the link.

Would you be able to post the custom filter for Sponsored Ads on facebook please? I'm using AdBlock ("getadblock" not "Plus"). Can AdBlock use the same custom filters as ABP?

These are the ads I'm seeing:

Sidebar:

AB should work as ABP (is using the same "engine"), but sometimes with some delay ..

Code: Select all

facebook.com#?#div[id^="hyperfeed_story_id_"]:-abp-has(a[href="#"]:-abp-contains(Sponsored))

Do you mean a delay in the custom filter working? Unfortunately I'm still seeing sponsored ads on my feed and also on the sidebar.
