Block snow effects on Blogger sites ?

Hi everyone,

Is there a generic filter I could use to block the default snow falling effects on Blogger sites (which most sites on Blogger annoyingly start using this time of the year) ?

Thank you very much!

Provide some examples (link)

However,

this list https://github.com/easylist/easylist/bl ... _block.txt
contains anti-snow filters

Code: Select all

/cf-christmasification-public.js
/cf-christmasification-public.min.js
/christmas-snow.js
/jquery.snow.js
/letitsnow.min.js
/magic-snowflakes/dist/snowflakes.min.js
/puresnow.js
/script/snow.js
/snow-fall.js
/snow-falling.js
/snow-storm.js
/snow/snow.js
/snowfall-master.min.js
/snowfall.jquery.js
/snowfall.jquery.min.js
/snowstorm-min.js
/snowstorm.js
/snowstorm.min.js
/snowstorm2.js
/wp-snow-effect-pro-public.js
/wp-snow-effect-pro/public/js/jsnow.js
/wp-snow-effect-public.js
/wp-snow-effect/public/js/jsnow.js

if you use uBO /(uBlock Origin adblocker), just enable the list indicated with a red arrow

The site that first came up with the annoyance this year for me is:
tralhasvarias.blogspot.com

I use uBO. I took a look at the logger but couldn't find anything with "snow", "flake" or "xmas". So it's either an obscure name, or embedded inside another script, dunno.

I asked for a generic filter first, because I was figuring that if a default Blogger snow script/widget is being used by the site, there might be a filter which works on any Blogger site which uses that same script/widget (?). That would be ideal since I'm sure soon other sites will use the same effect, but I'd be happy with anything that works even in just the above site.

Thanks for any help.

it's an inline Script

add in "my filters"

Code: Select all

tralhasvarias.blogspot.com##+js(rmnt, script, snowSize)

If this script is used in many blogs, you could use

Code: Select all

*##+js(rmnt, script, snowSize)

but this way will be injected in any site you visit.

Use also the list I indicated above for more classic "snow" external scripts
