one subscription?

Post by Guest »

I was just wondering why there are three seperate subscriptions? is there a reason why there isn't just one that combines all three? just asking out of curiosity, i'm satisfied with all three!

It is easier for myself and users to troubleshoot false positives between regular adblocking rules (EasyList) and element-hiding rules (EasyElement). There are users who don't want them all. There are some that don't want to hide all text ads and (believe it or not) some that don't want to block tracking or analysis scripts. Having 3 subscriptions separate makes EVERYONE happy and it is just as easy to add all three as it is to add one.

The Tracking Filter is used not only with my EasyList, but is also used with Cedric's Liste too (co-author of the Tracking Filter with myself).
