New

Dark mode

Support for dark mode added to the Settings pane, under the (new) Appearance section. The new setting can be either Auto, Light, or Dark.

In addition, there is a new setting to control the accent color used by uBO throughout its user interface. For example, changing the accent color changes the look of the popup panel.

Behavior at browser launch

A new setting in "Filter lists" pane to control whether uBO should wait for all filter lists to be loaded before unsuspending network activity. By default, at browser launch uBO waits for all filter lists to be loaded before unsuspending network activity so as to ensure web pages are properly filtered at launch.

The new setting allows to opt out of network activity suspension at launch, i.e. allowing web pages to load without waiting for filter lists to be fully loaded, of course at the cost of potentially not filtering properly those web pages.

Closed as fixed:

• Logger incorrectly reporting header= filters
