This extension has always worked well. Thank you for your diligence and attention to detail!

Missing import/export functionality (present in older versions!)! Copying and pasting rules exported from older version into text-box areas is counter-intuitive (some of elements like prefixes and suffixes must be manually removed!)! A separate text-box area for "Element Hiding Rules" is missing (it is joined/merged with "Custom Filter Rules" now).
It lets through far too many advertisements and "Adblock Warning and blocking" screens (even with "Adblock Warning Removal List" and "ABP filters" added and enabled) - so it doesn't really do what it is supposed to do!
Shame on you, Adblock Plus!
Edit:
I have abandoned you after many years together in favour of your rival uBlock Origin - their add-on is far more useful.

Hi Wirek!

We hate to see you go! I will certainly pass along the feedback to the team for further improvements. I agree, and export option for custom rules would be great for users. Can you send us some example URLs where you were seeing ads? Feel free to send these details to us via support@adblockplus.org. We look forward to your follow up!

Thanks

DOES NOT WORK! This still lets ads through, if the ad companies pay them to whitelist their ads. This is not an adblocker and should not be called one, since it can't even do the 1 thing it is supposed to do.

Hello!

Please be advised that no company can simply pay to have their ads shown. Publishers have to meet criteria set by the Acceptable Ads Committee before whitelisting is even considered. Most companies actually pay us nothing at all. Users still have the ability to block these ads by disabling “allow acceptable ads” in options. If you still experience ads with this feature disabled, please send us the URL along with a screenshot of your subscribed filter lists to support@adblockplus.org. We are more than happy to troubleshoot. You can find out more about how Acceptable Ads works here https://acceptableads.com.
