That list is not fighting anti adblocking.
Search the forum for custom filters for those sites or install uBo (ublock origin) and disable ABP.

Please explain why that list is not for anti adblocking/ablocking warning removal? If not, then what is it meant for?

The list will remove some simple warning messages (which don't block site's functionalities).

Then should be working for those sites. Neither block site's functions. E.g., nytimes with simple message. Your replies are not making much sense.

The guide(s) to writing my own filter is way beyond my pay grade. Using ABP>inspect element, gives me the following, but no idea what to do with it to create a filter. Otherwise, not seeing anything specifically that a filter might be based on for this case. Not even sure a filter can be created based on CSS. Would appreciate just a little help with this to get started. Thanks.

Code: Select all

<div class="css-1597c7c e1am8aqz0"><div class="css-1274r9c e1am8aqz1"><div class="css-q62db7 e1am8aqz2">Please disable your ad blocker.</div><div class="css-1o9h01y e1am8aqz3">Advertising helps fund Times journalism.</div></div><a href="https://help.nytimes.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001712553-How-to-allow-ads-on-nytimes-com" class="css-k4nqml"><button class="css-rotlzz e1am8aqz4">Unblock ads</button></a></div>s

Have to continue testing to be 100% certain of this, but looks like simple answer is to use Fanboy's Annoyance List.

Not seeing any way to edit: Fanboy's Annoyance List + Adguard Annoyance in uBO seems to do the job. Fanboy's Annoyance alone doesn't appear to be sufficient. Maybe this will help someone else who may be struggling with this.

The name of that List is misleading, it doesn't remove anti adblock nags and overlays, it only removes info msgs/banners about anti adblock.
