- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13359419, 8 years agoTo say that the 3.0 update sucks is far too kind. This is a travesty. Blaming WebExtensions is easy, but the developer has had ages to come up with something better than this - how did we end up with this feature-less, control-less, information-deprived, hideous, buggy piece of garbage? Amongst other problems listed here en masse, the options don't even stick!
Obviously nobody should upgrade to this version and if you did, then you should go to the "all versions" section and downgrade right away. Then disable auto-plugin-updating and stick with Firefox 56.0.2 for the foreseeable future.
What's really sad is that Adblock Plus is why people use Firefox. With this ugly train wreck of a release, Firefox is going to die. The worst thing is that the developer couldn't see forward into the future and move over to a better browser project like Pale Moon. If he'd done that, Firefox would have went to its grave and Pale Moon would have become the next great Mozilla-esque project. Bad decisions will leave both browsers as inconsequential remnants from the past.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417971, 8 years agoToo bad that element hiding helper not working anymore.
- Rated 5 out of 5by bruceb, 8 years agoAdblock Plus 3.0 .. not bad, but what happened to the Import or Backup Filters options ? ?
Can not seem to find it ... Thanks - Rated 1 out of 5by Kris W, 8 years agoVersion 3.0 seems to have broken the Element hider which is most of the reason I use adblock plus over others.
Also it hangs whenever I go to change any of the settings, The page dies with a non responsive javascript desktop-settings.js
It dissapoints me that this version is dumbed down like adblock was in chrome. The ability to tweak so many aspects was why I continued with adblock plus in firefox in the first place. I might just move to vivaldi if I can find an adblocker similar to adblock plus before 3.0 - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417439, 8 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417315, 8 years agoFrançais:
Depuis la dernière mise à jour d'Adblock Plus, la majorité des sites ne fonctionnent plus sans le désactiver et il est impossible comme avant de faire "Désactiver Adblock Plus partout".
Il n'existe plus que "désactiver sur ce site" maintenant et le seul moyen de le désactiver entièrement pour que les sites puissent refonctionner (comme avec son ancienne version), c'est d'aller dans les modules Firefox et de désactiver Adblock Plus.
Du coup j'en ai profiter pour aussi le désinstaller et partir hélas vers un autre bloqueur de publicité.
Améliorer le visuel de l'interface c'est bien, mais il ne faut pas anéantir les fonctionnalités de l'extension pour ça...
English:
Since the last update of Adblock Plus, the majority of sites no longer work without disabling it and it is impossible as before to "Disable Adblock Plus everywhere".
There is only "disable on this site" now and the only way to disable it completely so that sites can work again (as with its old version) is to go in Firefox modules and disable Adblock Plus .
So I took advantage of it to uninstall it and go unfortunately to another blocker advertising.
Improve the visual interface is good, but do not annihilate the features of the extension for that ... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417273, 8 years agoWhat happened to the blockable items list? I used that always! This is completely useless right now.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417266, 8 years agov3 sucks big time.... Is there a way to go back to v2.xx???
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417203, 8 years agoПолностью согласен с предыдущим оратором.
Новая версия 3.0 ни к черту не годна. Исчез список элементов, исчезло редактирование фильтра при выборе элемента на странице. Откатился на 2.91 и заблокировал обновления и Adbock и Firefox, что и всем советую. Без достойного блокировщика новая версия браузера лишается всех своих плюсов.
И еще совет разработчикам - не позорьтесь, уберите с нового интерфейса эти дебильные ссылки на социальные сети. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13417150, 8 years agoНовая версия 3.0 ни к черту не годна.

Many options i have come to rely on are now missing.
Very disappointed.
Edit: Added a start because it was possible to downgrade again.
Thoughtful, since i plan to stay with 56 until Mozilla has come back to their senses. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13417083, 8 years agoNo screen clutter with multiple ads that do not apply to me. If I even looked at something I was covered with ads about that subject. Thanks

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 10043150, 8 years agoVersion 3.0 is a disaster. The developers must be getting paid by a competitor to destroy their product. It has become useless. Now even Tools in Google Search is blocked, can't change language and period anymore. Ridiculous.

My Home setting is about:blank, so the page should be cleared. I have two possible workarounds. (1) Disable ABP. I would prefer not to do that. (2) Close the tab for the page that did not get cleared and open a new tab with a blank page.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13416786, 8 years agoAfter the latest ABP update the firefox is taking too much memory (1gb+ )... never had this problem with 2.x.x versions ...i dont have any other addons installed in my browser so i suspect this is an ABP issue
