Custom AdBlock filterlist generator for Bromite and Cromite
filtrite is a project for generating filter lists for Bromite and Cromite. See the page about Custom Ad Block Filters for more info.
You can choose any list from the table, then hold the name to copy its link. Add it to Bromite by going to settings > AdBlock settings, then setting "Filters URL" to the link you just copied.
Link | Description |
---|---|
Bromite Default | Bromite default filter list, but generated by this tool |
Bromite Extended | The default list with additional annoyance blockers I use with uBlock Origin on Desktop |
Bromite Extended (Soft) | Same as the "Bromite Extended" list, but with less aggressive filtering (should break fewer sites) |
German | The "Bromite Extended" list with additional region-specific blocklists for german sites |
Alternatively, you can go here to search forks of this project for more lists, e.g. for other countries.
These lists are regularly updated automatically using GitHub Actions.
Note: I'm not 100% sure if all list formats that are used are actually supported by the ruleset generation tool (as the output indicates some failures). If you have a comment on that, please open an issue :)
The normal Bromite ad blocking engine does not support all blocking formats. However, since the introduction of user scripts, it has become possible to block even more annoying elements. If you want more blockers (e.g. for cookie prompts), see my custom Bromite user scripts repository.
This program is designed in a way that allows easily adding new lists.
To create a new list:
example-list
. Please note that the file name must end with .txt
, so in our case we call it example-list.txt
(put it in the lists
directory).lists/example-list.txt
(in the lists
directory) that contains the URLs to filter lists you copied before. It should look like this:
# Lines starting with # are ignored, empty lines are also allowed
# List one URL per line:
https://easylist.to/easylist/easylist.txt
https://...
# The following line doesn't work, only put either a comment or an URL in one line, not both
http:// # Invalid comment on URL
https://github.com/USERNAME/filtrite/releases/latest/download/FILENAME.dat
. If your URL (except for the username/filename part) contains numbers, you copied the wrong link.Another thing to note is that GitHub disables scheduled workflows after 60 days, meaning that you sometimes have to commit something to keep your fork "alive".
This is free as in freedom software. Do whatever you like with it.
