Is it appropriate to have ChinaList/Corset on the front page

Post by eighty5cacao »

I noticed that the front page of the EasyList website mentions ChinaList and Corset as subscriptions suggested for use with the EasyList. I don't think the lists were designed to be used with EasyList; upon examining ChinaList, I noticed that it has several filter strings for Western ads/elements/trackers that are redundant to the EasyList family. Also, it doesn't seem to be as well optimized in general as EasyList. I haven't examined Corset, but the situation is probably similar.
Does anyone else have opinions as to whether it is appropriate to mention these filtersets on the front page?

I know. I will fix that. It seemed that Chinalist started out that way a while back (with my friend sheepy, the Chinalist author) but I guess he just decided to make his own Chinese subscription. I had forgotten about removing that from my website.

On the other hand, Corset ( the Korean supplement) IS designed to be a supplement of the EasyList.

Known lists that are designed specifically for use with the EasyList are:
Corset (Korean supplemental subscription)
Liste FR (French supplemental subscription)
ROList (Romanian supplemental subscription)
All these subscriptions are also available as "[subscription name]+EasyList" subscriptions (they are written separately but exist on the same subscription)

They are all here:

I will fix that this week ... thanx.

*EDIT:
.... and now once again, Chinalist (Chinese supplemental subscription)

Opps... just want to inform you that I abandoned that attempt and the new ChinaList (since around a week ago?) is totally dependent on EasyList. :oops:

Welcome back, Sheepy.
So I guess we are back to where I thought we once were again :D
(re-edited my above post)

I took down the info on the EasyList website for now for any EasyList supplement subscriptions. That info would probably be better served on ABP's subscription page anyway like the others. :wink:

@ eighty5cacao:
Well there you go ... straight from the Chinalist author. :wink:
