Selectable filter lists isn't close to uBlock equivalency, that's just table stakes for any adblocker. As far as I've been able to determine, in Brave there is no way to view a list/grid/matrix of which domains are being blocked and which sort of content is being blocked; this is a feature I use in ublock origin / umatrix a lot and don't wish to go without. (For this matter, ublock origin in advanced mode is claimed to have equivalency to umatrix in this regard, but if that's true I can't figure out how.) Also missing from Brave adblocker, as far as I can tell, is an interface for creating cosmetic filters. I use these frequently for removing things like floating headers and footers, and other obnoxious first-party elements that aren't ads but nevertheless degrade websites to satisfy some web designers random whims.

Here is an example of Brave's filtering falling short: http://0x0.st/H_YB.jpg

Do you see that wide gray box that says "Youtube Featured, RELEASED this week!" I consider that an ad for trashy commercial popculture slop, I hate it and want it gone. How do I remove it with Brave's blocker? I have ad blocking turned up to aggressive but it's still there. I can't figure out how to create a new cosmetic filter, Youtube is unusable to me without this. If I scroll down further I see similar boxes for "Trending", "Shorts", and "Celebrate World's Indigenous People's Day." All of this needs to go; in Firefox I don't see any of it because, with ublock origin, I created a cosmetic filter for ytd-rich-section-renderer. "Rich section" indeed...

Anyway, I didn't downvote your above comment, which is now flagged as well. Near as I can figure the "modern godwin" accusation leveled against you is either because you mentioned brave (is Eich claimed to be a nazi now?) or because you said Mozilla is being woke. Either way, a very stupid reaction to your inoffensive comment. This place is becoming orange reddit.
