Opera One gets a new and faster native ad blocker

The Facebook-issue hasn't been resolved, actually. I can load about four to ten posts until I get an error message like this:
I don't know which filter is responsible for this. But as far as I know you can't turn on and turn off filters for each site. You can only disable the ad blocker generally for specific websites.
But as I found out, doing this in the address bar will make the button disappear from there for this very site as well. And to bring it back you have to go to settings and delete exceptions (for Facebook in this case). -

@Opera-QA-Team Maybe you have an idea how to handle the Facebook issue with not loading feeds and some other annoyances with the new ad blocker turned on.
So for me it seems there's only to alternatives:
either turning ad bock off for Facebook generally (which isn't what I want to do, actually) or just using another browser for it.What would help me: turning off the specific filter list that breaks Facebook for just this site. As far as I see it, you can toggle on or off filter lists only generally and for all sites.
Besides, there's no such issue with Firefox and the uBlock Origin extension.

Hello, will the ad blocker affect youtube? It's because some time ago I used opera's ad blocker and youtube sent me a warning that if I didn't turned off my ad blocker they were banning my account from youtube and I'm scared that it can affect in that case. Thank you.

The absolute best! I have been using Opera for about 16 years or more and have always found out that it has no competition, not even close!
The best level of customisation, tab management, browsing speed, add blocking and, what is most important, the least resources needed from my laptop! I frequently use between 250 to even 500 tabs open at the same time, so this is a major point for me! In comparison, the other browsers slowed down, froze or used most of my RAM when browsing with even as little as 50 tabs opened.
So congrats for building and maintaining the best browser on planet Earth! -

@Himmelsschlingel We recommend choosing 'turn off for this website.' Using the main toggle instead will disable the ad blocker for all websites.

@Himmelsschlingel Yes, this issue is connected to the parsing of the uBO: Filters list. Ticket nr: ADBL-503. You can temporarily disable it while we work on a fix or add Facebook to Exceptions.

@Andrash We are currently investigating these intermittent playback errors under Ticket nr: ADBL-406. The issue doesn't reproduce consistently for everyone, but it appears to be linked to how the uBO: Filters list is parsed in certain scenarios. As a temporary workaround, disabling just that specific list in your settings (opera://settings/adBlockerLists) should restore video playback.
