uBlock Origin Lite for Chrome has been updated to 2025.619.2143 however the ‘Allow List’ has been removed so if you do wish to add a list of websites that you want to exclude from having content blocking to it then you’ll need to open up the settings in uBlock Origin Lite, put a tick next to ‘Developer Mode’, click on ‘Develop’, then select ‘Custom DNR rules’ from the drop down menu the copy and paste the following int into the box:

---
action:
  type: allowAllRequests
condition:
  urlFilter: *
  requestDomains:
    - <domain>
  resourceTypes:
    - main_frame
    - sub_frame
priority: 1
id: 1
---

Replace <domain> with the domain, you can just have a long list one after the other if you wish (that is what I did). I’m unsure whether it makes a difference in terms of performance but all the domains I’ve added have worked as expected – I guess it is only a major issue if I wanted to have specific settings for each individual domain but since they’re all being treated the same I’ll throw it all in one filter setting. It took a while to find the syntax that would work – Google’s AI search didn’t really help given that it conflated unrelated articles together which appears to be something I see quite often (I report the issue but it is doubtful that the problem will be fixed given how I’ve reported other issues in the past with no corrects being made many years later.

Lots of changes coming with Chrome 138 which will be released next week, if you want to see what is coming up in future Chrome releases you can check out the roadmap over here (link) – I’m going to keep giving Safari a try as well as keeping up to date with what Google is doing with Chrome.
