Hi,
I like to check risky links in incognito mode first. Risky links can be anything from unknown youtube videos (so I don't get RickRoll'd in my watch history), torrents, new flash/html5 games, to potential 18+ content, even. Those kinds of websites are the most heavily spammed with advertisements, usually. So that is when I would need uBlock's protection the most, but that is also when it fails me... Sometimes. The website ads are able to load before adblocking is ready, it seems. And upon loading it does not retroactively zap all already loaded adverts and their artifacts.
Subsequent incognito tabs are adblocked fine. Only the first one fails to react in time. Only reproducible the first time in between restarts.
Obviously in Chrome's extension settings for uBlock I have "allow in incognito mode" checked. And it does load after a couple hundred milliseconds of delay in the incognito window too. But by then it is too late. Ads are rendering in...
Workaround: Leave an incognito window open so the extension is always ready. (Not feasible; I want those sessions to be as short lived as possible. Incognito cookies only disappear once all incognito windows are closed.)
I also filled out this template thing below, though I am not a fan of it. Two notes:
Sincerely,
