I literally just read this Reddit post and had the same (though less extreme) reaction as OP did. This video is GOLD. The doodle logo is annoying me for YEARS now because when I watched a video, I go back to the homepage by clicking the logo and it always opens up a huge bar on top of the page.
i might be wrong but i think if you do the following the doodles should stop working forever: -follow the steps in the video, remove the doodle -click on ublock and go "dashboard" (cogs icon) -go to tab "my filters" -there find your doodle filter (it will be under the date of whenever you removed the doodle). it will be a URL -between "groth/" and ".webp", delete everything and replace it with an asterix *
Thank you, l will try this. Does it work for featured doodles as well? I have one which has appeared which when clicked on takes me to a playlist of videos on the selected subject which l have no interest in.
I'm glad this helped you. I later discovered that this method had to be repeated each time a new doodle is added next to the logo. As for your question: I have not tried. Follow the same steps in this video for that doodle and see if it works. I know this method can block almost anything on a web page, so it might be able to block what you are talking about.
