Peertube: no 'subscribe' button when uBlock Origin is active

Created on 10 Mar 2019  路  8Comments  路  Source: Chocobozzz/PeerTube

Still "uBlock Origin" add-on on firefox, the button to subscribe or unsuscribe to a channel is not visible
When I deactovate ublock and reload peertube page, the subscribe button is enable.

  • instance : peertube.fr
  • firefox : 65.0.1

    • add on : uBlock Origin release 1.18.4

    • ...

  • Linux Mint : 18.3

I don't know if it's helping you but I finded which uBlocks specifics filters ("esthetic filter" ) were causing the problem :

  • Fanboy's Social Blocking List
  • Fanboy's Annoyance List
    Apparently for the same reason : The usage of "subscribe-button"

Therefore, I'm not really sure if problem is on peertube side or on filter side.

Which channel do you want to subscribe to? Is it the same for every channels or just a specific one?

The problem was found with all channels I tested
Notice that uBlock Origin didn't block any request. I can reproduce it when ever you want/need

I just tested, I don't have this issue. Maybe it's one of your custom filters?

I don't have this issue too, on my instance and on peertube.fr

You can find out which rule causes this by opening the logger and click the reload button. Then you can see which request is blocked and which rule has caused this. Then you can report your findings to Fanboy and let him/her/them fix it on their side. Meanwhile you can use a whitelisting approach by clicking on the right (not left, that will whitelist all requests) green button.

Anyway, if you trust that peertube instance, you can use the left green button to fully whitelist it.

@Fipaddict so your thumb-up means you understood what I mean? good, thank you. :)
