What uBlacklist does well
- One-click block from results. When a junk site appears in your results, a “Block this site” link appears next to it. One click and you’ll never see that domain again.
- Community blocklists. Subscribe to maintained lists for content farms, AI-spam sites, Pinterest mirrors, recipe-blog wrappers. The uBlacklist Huge AI Blocklist is the de facto standard.
- Regex and wildcards. Block patterns like
*.medium.com/*or/(quora|chegg)\.com/. - Cross-browser, cross-engine. Works on basically every major search engine you’d actually use.
What uBlacklist doesn’t do
- Filter social feeds. It only acts on search results. For Reddit, use Ultimate Reddit Filter. For social, use News Feed Eradicator.
- Block direct visits. If you type the URL or click a non-search link, uBlacklist doesn’t fire.
- Auto-sync. You wire up Google Drive or Dropbox yourself the first time.
Best for
Anyone whose search results in 2026 are choked with AI-generated content, content farms, or specific sites they’ve sworn off (Quora, Pinterest, Medium clones).
