Causes some resource usage but seems to only apply to the homepage.

It's something new. I first noticed today.
The content is there but when the page finishes loading it disappears. If you stop the page loading you can read it.
I don't know how they do it but it's not javascript. If you load the page without javascript the same thing happens. Some CSS trick?

thefreedictionary.com#@#[-abp-properties='display: block; margin*; overflow*; width: 100%;']

Yes, this filter in EasyList is causing all the content to be hidden:

Code: Select all

thefreedictionary.com##[-abp-properties='display: block; margin*; overflow*; width: 100%;']
[mention]intense[/mention] I was using uBO that is why I didn't notice the issue might be the same with you.

SS: https://image.ibb.co/dxZb5k/2017_05_01_08_11_54_Settings.png

Error URL: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/nosegay

I don't see any ads even after whitelisting the above filter with:

Code: Select all

thefreedictionary.com#@#[-abp-properties='display: block; margin*; overflow*; width: 100%;']
This filter should be removed.
